  what does your pdoc say? they will be able to tell you exactly what you can and can not take while pregnant...it should all be listed by class as to what will harm the fetus....

  I was on all my meds when I got pregnant. Was 8 weeks pregnant before I quit all my meds. Had to doctor said. He did put me on Chlorpromazine for the rest of my pregnancy. The hormones kept me in check throughout the 9 months and I felt really good. But if you are planning to get pregnant talk to your doc and get off your meds. There are serious side effects for the fetus. I was LUCKY that my daughter turned out perfect. but I was worried for a while and had a series of special tests done and was sent to a specialist. Good Luck!

  I would love another child, but i'm too scared. I take seroquel, depakote, and sometimes an anti-depressant. The post natal depression i get is really severe, and i dont think i'd survive pregnancy without my meds. And having them messed about with again is just too much for me.

Sometimes there are some things that you feel more comfortable discussing among other women, without men present.
