IVF and Epilepsy

[Lalala8]

Any ladies out there trying (or tried) IVF while on Lamictal (or any anti-epileptic medication)?

Not me personally, but my cousin's wife has 2 happy, healthy kids now despite needing seizure medication. I'm not sure exactly what she takes. I do know that her treatment regiment was slacked off as much as possible during the first trimester, because that's when you have the most risk for the foetus, but she went back to her usual medication schedule starting in her 2nd trimester with her last pregnancy and her son turned out just fine.
