Pregnant with my first baby and have been diagnosed with mental health. Has anyone got any experience with this sort of issue?
Hey. I'm Kerry. I'm a mental health nursing student qualifying at the end of the year. I also worked on mental health for 4 years prior to my training so if you want to chat im here and may be able to help x
I've came off all medication and feel stable but I'm just so worried that I will be all over the place once the baby comes x
I've had mental health problems since the age of 16, so long before I fell pregnant. I have bipolar disorder. I was on medication up until 20 weeks, then was advised to come off them due to concerns that they weren't safe for baby when taken past that point. Will be going back on medication once I've had baby. Inbox me if you ever need to chat. I'm kind of a mental health veteran these days lol!
Hi lovely welcome and congratulations 💖
