I'm starting to be concerned with the level of meds i'm on and the effect they may be having on my cycle (which has been way off since i started drug therapy) and long term fertility. I guess I don't have a specific question, i'm just a little down - my husband and i would have liked to be pregnant by now but i don't even know how i would stabilize my moods enough to feel like i could handle a pregnancy and i'm worried about post partum and blah blah blah. anyone have a few bright and hopeful words of wisdom?
thanks
holly

I am sorry that you are worrying about your chances of getting pregnant :( First, have you talked to your gyn about how you can regulate your cycle while on meds? I know it is hard, but try not to get down about it just yet. I mean, the fun part is in the trying right? Anyway, I just thought you might be interested in the following two threads by another babbler (bipolar and on meds) who is currently pregnant. You will no doubt find some words of wisdom in those threads.

All the best to you. I hope your dreams of getting pregnant and having a child come soon in the very near future.
