So I just found out that I am about eight weeks pregnant and I'm a little worried considering that I am bipolar… I was wondering if anyone else can relate to what I am going through and how this is going to affect my pregnancy.
Thanks for the advice! I get into a pretty deep depression about every two weeks and can't get out of bed sometimes for 3 days or so. That's what I'm really worried about.
when we decided to try for a baby I had to wean off my meds. I'm BP also. I was worried but I will tell you this pregnancy has made me calmer in certain ways. I will let you know when I'm prone to depressive modes coming on I try to be very aware and try to go somewhere and walk myself through my moods, as they do happen. I know there are certain meds you can stay on but you might wanna talk to your dr abt it.
ask your dr about natural supplements to be sure. I personally really try to be aware of my thoughts because there's not much I can do to feel better with medicine.
