scared for baby

my husband and I decided to try for a baby in febuary. We had sex one time only during my calculated ovulation period. I waited till it was time to test and I tested negative for the first one. A week later tested again. Negative. That test should of been my 2 days before missed period test. I ended up waiting 4 days and had taken four. (which is present day)  all were positive but when I had received the negative tests I assumed I wasn't pregnant and my husband and I had only tried for that one day and decided to stop. Well I had 3 beers about 3 days ago and rose carnival rides a week ago? Did I just harm my baby! I really had no idea that I was. I didn't even feel it. I felt pregnant with my other two. I'm scared and overly obsessing about it. Please help!

I had a similar situation.  I was on the NUVA-RING so I didn't actually think that I would get pregnant.  Sooo..  I drank every weekend until we found out (8 weeks) and smoked a pack of cigarettes a week.  It was stupid...  I really hope I didn't do any damage.  BUT:  My doctor and nurses told me that I shouldn't worry and that everything should be fine.  I did stop all of that, there were a few complications in this pregnancy so far (subchorionic hematoma and placenta previa), but both have moved/went away.  I've been drinking like this for half a year and smoking for two years..  I stopped as soon as we found out.  I don't want to put my baby at risk.  I'm sure the carnival ride is fine.  You weren't that far along.  Good luck!!!!!!! :) and congrats!

Congrats on TTC the first time around, can you through some of that out to some of the ladies LOL I dont think you really did anything at all. With my first child I did the same thing. I had gone to Disneyland and had no idea, and there were no problems at all, but I agree with nickie just tal with the doctor just to let them know. Good-luck and congrats again

Hey it is ok... Most doctors will tell you that drinking and even riding a ride is not good in pregnancy but you are so early I don't think that any damage was done. You should definitely discuss this with your doctor just in case. Your baby is so small at that point that it is protected by your uterus but like I said, definitely bring it up to your doctor =) Try to relax it will all be okay =)
