I had sex last night. Unprotected. He came inside of me, so I'm thinking I should take some vitamins just in case I am pregnant, or become.
Is there any good woman vitamins that help our body and if we our pregnant or become will help the baby to grow strong and help it be healthy.
Any ideas?
Should I stay way from any food or be eatting any types of food to help.
I'm not afrade to have children, I'm just afrade of having one with no left hand or learning problems

You need to be on a prenatal vitamin. You can find them at any pharmacy. It is advised that all women of childbearing years be on a vitamin that contains folic acid.
Stay away from tobacco, alcohol and caffeine. Eat a healthy diet.

So those are good for the woman organs? Its fine to take them if I'm not pregnant and when I become?

Girlfriend, I'm 43, can't have any more kids and I take prenatal vitamins on a daily basis. They are very healthy for you, and they prevent spina bifida should you become pregnant.

OK. I'm just a little freaked. If I do become pregnant I want the baby to be health, but this definitely wasn't planned.

I can definitely understand that.
When is your period due?

Anywhere between the 10th and the 17th. Its never on the "same day".
Congential heart defects, down syndrome, hypospadias, cleft lip and palate, club foot, spina bifida that's a lot of stuff that can go wrong.

Hypospadias is rare, and as you know, only happens with boys, LOL. There is a ton more that can go wrong, but not as often as you think.
You only brushed the surface with what can go wrong.

Oh I know. This is why I don't want children. But yeah I'll get those vitamins. Caffeine is going to be a hard one. When should I take a test? 17th you think if I haven't started my period by then?

You should test after you miss your period. Now, understand that stress may make your period late.
