hello everyone! i am new to this forum and expecting my first this dec.
i was wondering if any other moms out there took psych meds (like anti-depressants or benzodiazpines) while pregnant.
my psychatrist has suggest that i maintain my regiment of xanax (NOT daily) as needed and my SSRI while pregnant because of my severe anxiety and depression (that has been exacerbated with my [unplanned] pregnancy)
i am aware there are risks associated specifically with xanax or other benzos and i would really appreciate hearing about any other mamas out there who who perhaps took xanax (or SSRIs) while pregnant and how it turned out for them...
i havent really been taking my meds since i found out i was pregnant because im scared, but i am suffering without them and my doctor suggests that the benefits outweigh the risks for me.
i would really appreciate to hear anyone's experience with this. thank you so much
