Does anyone know anything about chlorate in pregnancy…

Hi ladies, I’m around 11 weeks pregnant and have discovered appetiser which was one of the only drinks I could stomach until recently. I mostly bought the glass bottles, however did get one of the 6x can packs, probably drank 3-4 of them over several days when I was about 7-8 weeks pregnant. I’ve seen today while out food shopping they have been recalled for potentially high levels of chlorate which I understand is a by product of chlorine. There are quite a few news articles on it as it affected a few other drinks too like Coca Cola.
I am not too sure there is any point in me calling the customer services, I doubt they’ll be able to tell me where they sold it and I doubt they’ll have any knowledge of what it could do in pregnancy.
I acknowledge I’m an anxious pregnant person, I realise there’s not much I can do in this situation but just wondered if anyone had any specialist knowledge or wisdom or advice on this very niche area!
Thanks in advance xxx
