Hello, posting here for traffic

I've just found out I'm 5 weeks pregnant. Last week I was taking antibiotics for 5 days, I'm really worried this could have affected the baby? Does anyone know what the chances are of any damage being done? Really worried!

The NHS says it's ok to use in pregnancy: www.nhs.uk/medicines/metronidazole/pregnancy-breastfeeding-and-fertility-while-taking-or-using-metronidazole/
