Honestly, it seems to stabilize most women for some reason. I know several people who are bipolar and they feel/felt better during pregnancy. The first part of pregnancy is a little more difficult, though.

How far are you? How severe are you? Are you bipolar I or II? Have you been dx with anything else in addition to bipolar? I am not saying it can't make someone worse. That would make sense in a way because of all the hormones going through your body during this time.
