I understand your concerns. I had two of my children before being diagnosed so I was not on any medication at the time. Actually other then being very emotional(crying a lot for no reason) I did pretty well. With my last child I had to stop taking my medication which was harder then not being on any to begin with. That pregnancy was a bit harder to cope with because of the lack of meds and the anxiety of having two children to take care of all ready. Overall I would have to say the experience was interesting, but not bad. I just told myself I had to stay healthy and "in check" for the babys sake and that kept me going. Now I realize that having my children is still what keeps me going. On my worst days I look at them and they can make me smile. I wish you luck, becoming a mother is a wonderful thing. Take care.
