In reply to Pregnancy and Meds????, posted by starlight on June 16, 2004, at 11:42:48
Yes I did. I was taking Prozac and Ritalin on a scheduled basis and Valium occasionally. I didn't find out I was pregnant (with twins) until around 3 months too, so I was really worried.
Not to scare anyone, but I had a complication at 5 months (placental abruption) and of course the babies, being born that early didn't survive. But my reason for posting this is, as far as anyone could tell, the meds I'd been taking had nothing to do with what happened and it looked as if my babies would have been perfect- basically it was _my_ body that messed up and I've been told there was no reason to think it was the meds that caused it.
So I did lose my babies, but unless everyone (including their doctor father) was lying to me, it wasn't the meds and the babies were, as far they could tell, perfectly normal.
This was meant to be a reassuring message....hope I got my point across.
Best of luck to you.
