Pregnancy after taking birth control pills, can the child be kept?

Patient's question:

Because I don't have a plan to have children, I have been taking oral contraceptives. But for some reason, I still got pregnant. Some people told me that some babies might not be healthy if they take birth control pills. But I also want to keep the child. So, can the child be kept after getting pregnant while taking birth control pills?

Doctor's answer:

After taking oral contraceptives, an unexpected pregnancy occurs, which indeed has a certain impact on the fetal growth and development. This is not good, but whether to keep the child still needs to be based on individual physical conditions. Listen to the doctor's advice more, understand the issues. Short-term contraceptive pills have relatively small side effects, while emergency contraceptive pills have much larger side effects. If you want to keep the child, it is necessary to have regular prenatal examination training, such as the Tans screening and 4D color Doppler ultrasound examination, which all need to be done.
