I am pregnant with my third and about 5-6 weeks along. I t was unexpected because we were using BC at the time. I am worried about some of the stuff I consumed before I knew... Red Bull, I have attended several events with coworkers and drank and went out drinking with the girls (I lost about 80lbs and just went crazy going out) I also took lots of vitamin C which can cause birth defects. Of course after I found out I started prenatal vitamins and quit doing anything unhealthy... but I am still worried..anyone with comforting words?

I drank red bull throughout my first pregnancy. Not that i'm proud of it, but I worked full time and coffee was disgusting. Now my daughter is 5 yrs old, healthy and brilliant. (seriouslly she has the vocabulary of a 10 yr old)

What's important is to be honest with your Dr. so they're aware of these things. You'll be fine. You're stopping now and most of the time what you've done before you know will not harm the baby. Good luck to you.

I was out drinking some too before I found out I was pregnant and even when we were ttc we were on a cruise so of course we were having a good time with the beer. My doc. smiled when I asked and said " Do you know how many babies are conceived when someone is totally drunk?". Good point. I still worry too as 2 days before we found out we were out for Monday Night Football, but I'm sure all is well :)
