Hi. My name is amy and I just found out
that I am pregnant, and I also have
bipolar. I am on lamictal, and ambien for
sleep, and I was just wondering if anyone
actually knew the effects of these on a
baby. I did stop taking them, but I was
just curious, because I am already 5 wks.
Please advise.

www.Lamictal.Com
google search for lamictal. I use to be
on lamictal,
and can remember some of the side effects.
But don't know about how it would effect
a baby. Have you talked to your doctor.
In my opinion that would be my advice is
to go talk to your doctor about the meds
and say your pregrant. I'd be
worryed(sp?)... I heard some meds can
cause birth deffects but I don't know if
that's true or not.
