Congratulations on your pregnancy!
I'm Bipolar II and I tried tons of things before I found stuff that worked for me. The combination that worked the best for me was Lithium and Lamictal. I had a negative reaction to Wellbutrin as well. Not physically, but emotionally. Lamictal was definitely the easiest to get on for me. Not as many side effects. The only side effect I noticed was when I was getting off of it. I took Lamictal and Lithium for 8 years and it truly was my godsend. Hope some of this information helps and good luck!!
