Dear Judy,
Thank you so much for sharing your story with me. It means a lot -- I never looked at having a baby as "bringing more love into our family" -- but you are so right! Thanks again.And ... I'm so happy for you, that your amnio turned out normal and that you're having a little girl! I'll never forget what a relief it after my amnio, to find out everything was okay.
I admire your courage and honesty. Best wishes to you! Keep us posted...

> Hi,
> I was going to stay out of this because I am going through so many fears right now (which my ob/gyn informs me all Moms do whatever their dx or non-dx) I had multiple m/c after the birth of my son and now am the furthest along I've been since his birth. The only med I stayed on in the 1st trimester was klonopin because I couldn't make it without it, and have taken depakote and zyprexa when necessary. The positive is a normal amnio and the negative is fighting my episodes of mania and depression. But I wouldn't trade any of this for the first sight of that much loved baby when she! is born. I will deal with the problems when/if they occur. I had a psychotic depressive episode with my first child and my treating physicians are ready for any signs with this one. Please don't let your fears prevent you from bringing more love into your family's life- judy
