12 week scan tomorrow.. worried.

[ohdearymemumof3]

Helloo,
I have my 12 week scan tomorrow at 1:30pm (DC3).. im worried something will be wrong with the baby because i didn't really take any vitamins, the odd one here and there but i had terrible sickness and couldn't keep anything down so thought there was no point.. also for the past 2 months all iv eaten is freezer food or takeaways with the odd homely meal cooked by someone else as i cant stand to cook atm! I cant even do my shopping because looking at all the food makes me heave.. what do you all think? Anyone been in this situation?. Dont judge me please.

I think lots of people don't know they are pregnant so don't take vitamins. And feeling sick about food is also normal. I'd be anxious too though, it's scary building it all up. I'm sure it will be all fine though :)

I mean, I'd be anxious at a scan, not because you didn't take vitamins. I was anxious for the whole of my pregnancy! Just anxious! I think it's normal

Yeahh i know what you mean :) im just kicking myself that i didnt make more of an effort to eat well and force vitamins in me.. just hope baby's healthy and no concerns!🤞🏻

I know some friends who didn't even find out until over 4 months pregnant. They def didn't take vitamins and all fine!! :) let me know how it goes!!

Thankyou thats reassuring 😘.. i shall post my scan pic on tomorrow for you🤞🏻❤

No one took vitamins 100 years ago. You'll be fine, just take care of yourself and don't stress.

I’ve got a scan tomorrow 😬😬😬, first one! I was even reluctant to post on here I was having one but I thought sod it. What will be will be and hopefully it will be all good 🤞🏻

Yeah fingers crossed for us both @Kate3150 🤞🏻 its my first one too.. let me no how you get on! What time is yours?

After 3 weeks pregnant folic acid doesn’t benefit the baby’s neural tube (only your pre-pregnancy diet helps here), but does provide some benefits for the baby’s blood flow from the placenta (ie in preclampsia prevention) so you should start taking it if you haven’t. Vitamin D too will help skeletal development right up to the 3rd trimester.

@ohdearymemumof3- mines at 2.45pm, this morning is going to drag!!! Hope yours is earlier? X

You are the first one to say boy!!.. due on 21st Dec but i was 6 days late with my other 2 so i bet it will be the same again haha.

I'm sure you'll be fine. I don't remember taking any vitamin supplements and ate practically anything that was going. All was well.
