In a bit of a panic here, was 4 days late so took test today, not really expecting to get a positive result (been very sporadically ttc) and yes got the positive!
DH and I decided to start ttc about 2 months ago so I bought the folic acid, took them for a week, then went on hols and forgot to pack them. Since then I have been taking them off and on ( around 40 pills since sept) and we have continued to ttc but not very often ( around once a week) I really meant to get back into the routine of taking it then we'd make a concentrated ttc effort.
I'm now completely panicking that through my lax attitude to the folic acid I will have destined my baby to some neural disorder!
Could I please have some reassurance?! I'm seeing the doctor on thurs but have spent all day today feeling sick with nerves and regret.
