Hi Baby Pike.

My wonderful lad wasn't expected quite yet and believe me, he is the most perfect thing to ever happen! Well done for deciding to keep your baby, I'm sure you will be truely blessed with this child.

So many things, like breakfast cereal, are fortified with vitamins and folic acid, plus it naturally occurs in some foods, so don't worry about not taking supplements just yet. After all, healthy babies were born in the days before supplements, right? I didn't find out until I was 8w along, although I'd been taking folic acid most days, but not all the preg vitamins and I'd been eating peanuts, a big no-no in pregnancy with a DH with allergies. I'd also been helping fit a bathroom, including shifting the new basin and bath, being banned from using the loo for a day and various other heavy lifting stuff that I shouldn't have done. Some things are just meant to be and there's nothing we can do to change that.
