Not quite a year out, and Surprise!

I have always been in touch with my body and last week I started telling my husband, I think I might be pregnant. Now, I am no where near far enough to have symptoms, but I just "knew". So this past Saturday I decided to test. Then I immediately started sobbing hysterically when it came back positive.

This will be my 4th child, and I am not quite a year post op. I am already deficient with many vitamins, so I am very scared. Not only for health of baby, but myself as I have three already to care for.

Was guided here by a few that are posters here, and hope that I can find some guidance. I have a history of ectopic pregnancy so I already have an appointment schduled for this week. I am lost as to how much food, what vitamins to take...will my taking high doses harm the baby or help...So much on my mind, and trying not to spaz out!

Celebrate calcium citrate 500mg
Folic acid

Vit D 1000mg
Calcium 500ml

I am low in B12, Iron and Vit D

Taking my two multis, 1500 calcium, B12 shot bi-weekly, and 50,000 IU Vit D once a week. I also have iron I should be taking but can't seem to get down so need to find chewables.

My folate was low too, so I am wondering if I need to pick up a folic acid.

My biggest worry is calories. I have been at 800-1200 for months now, do I increase?

Bariatric Advantage has a chewable iron, in lime and berry. I have the berry, it is not bad. They have a high dose of Vit D3 too. I think the only vitamin we have to monitor is too mauch A, can be harmful to baby.
