I have recently stopped trying to conceive but when I was I was living in constant fear of my meds causing birth defects, so I understand completely how you feel. Unfortunately with most of these meds they are Category C and that means they have been known to cause birth anomalies in animals but not enough studies have been done with pregnant women to know the risks for sure. It's a risks vs benefits choice. There is a good site for checking effects of drugs on pregnancy at www.safefetus.com. Good luck with your quest to have a little one, and in finding a comfortable drug regime that works in the safest way possible.
