Hello,
Welcome to HCM and thanks for asking your question.....
First of all , congratulations for your pregnancy...don't worry, there are very very rare chances that it might affect fetus, but very rarely...you can do fetal anomaly scan at 14th to 16th week to rule out any gross malformations...
I would suggest that now don't take any medications without consulting your doctor...
Hope this will help you and best luck for your pregnancy...you can ask any further questions to me anytime...
