I have been on meds for anxiety for a while and now we are planning. Im scared to stop suddenly but also worried about the baby. Did anyone continue theirs, what did your doc say?
Just like I had to be super careful with my diabetes medicines, you have to be careful with these too. Your psychiatrist and gynac need to coordinate to give you what's safe for the baby.
Yes, mental peace is everything! Many safe options are available nowadays so don't worry. Just consult your gynac and doctor first to get the right guidance.
Beta, don't worry about what people say, taking care of your mind is important. Just go and talk to your doctor nicely, they will tell you what is safe for you and the little baby.
I am planning to conceive and also have questions about this. I've heard some are safe, but is it safe to continue them? Definitely ask your doctor before planning anything.
For mild anxiety, deep breathing and walking helps. But if you are on antidepressants, please do not stop or change them on your own, talk to your doctor immediately.
Yes, mental health is super important, happy mom means happy baby! But don't take advice from Google or us, run to your doctor and get the safe ones prescribed lol.
My doctor explained that untreated depression is riskier than some safe antidepressants. There are specific medications that doctors prescribe during pregnancy after weighing risks, so please consult your doctor.
