What Are The Symptoms Of Potential Pregnancy?
I recently just found out I was 7 months pregnant. I had been having periods over the months and had taken a few pregnancy tests bc I was afraid I might have been because of unprotected sex, but all of the tests were negative. I had no signs of pregnancy at all and when I went for my yearly obgyn visit I was told I was pregnant. I am worried now that some of the things I've done over the past few months could have hurt my baby since I didn't know I was carrying. What should I do? My doctor says I am fine but I still am afriad for my child.

Hallow Dear,
I do empathize your concern for your baby.
There are certain tests like triple marker tests, nuchal translucency test, etc. which help predict the affection of the foetus. Some gross abnormalities may even be visualized by ultrasonography. If you are so much concerned about the probable abnormality in the development in your foetus, please suggest your obstetrician to get these tests done for you. Other option is to report to the Foetal Medicine Specialist and narrate the whole story in details. This specialist will advise you regarding the confirmation of the status of baby.
I hope this helps you.
All the best,
Dr. Nishikant Shrotri
