Codliver oil supplement-early pregnancy

Question

Asked for Female, 30 Years

Hi doc, I am currently in 7th week pregnancy. I found out about pregnancy in late 5th week. From quite 3-4 months I was taking cod liver oil and multivitamin supplements as a part of my dieting regime but I continued taking even after knowing I am pregnant... Is it safe?? Should I be concerned about my baby's development. I will not take these supplements anymore but I am scared of any of these supplements would have caused any damage. My first scan is due after 2 days. Please guide me.
