UnplannedPreg W/D from Lex, Adderall, Klonopin

Posted by katalina on November 28, 2003, at 8:44:27

I can't believe this has happened to me. To my complete shock (birth control failure), I found out I was pregnant 3 weeks ago. I've been in denial about it for the most part and even planned to terminate the pregnancy but was unable to go through with it last week knowing that I still had some time to reconsider my decision. I'm only 7 weeks. My girls are 3 & 4 and my husband is thrilled to be having another child, so the guilt is heavy if I terminate the feign a miscarriage.

Anyway, after I found out I continued my Lexapro, Adderall and Klonopin combo for about 5 days, cutting back each day and have taken nothing for 2 weeks, except 2 Xanax. I'm very worried about the effects of the drugs for the few weeks I took them while I didn't know I was pregnant. I was on 10 mgs. Lex, 40 Adderall XR and 1.5 mgs. of Klonopin daily. I know I CAN muddle through without drugs during a pregnancy (for some reason I feel better while I'm pregnant vs. not pregnant and non-medicated state) but I feel stressed and very irritable right now and can't believe that I'm going to have another child (the two that I have are very "spirited" - politically correct term for high probability to bug the living &%#$ out of adults).

Has anyone taken stims early in pregnancy and gone on to have a healthy baby? I feel sick about this (literally).

Thanks!
