To make a long story short, my DS1's dad, my exhusband is going to drive me crazy!!! I can't handle all of the BS that he continues to put me through!!

I have to constantly worry about how DS1 is being treated when in his care, with who he is being left with, with how those people are treating him, etc.

Anyways I've always had complicated pregnancies & have never taken medications while not pregnant. I'm having almost nightly anxiety attacks this pregnancy, crying all of the time, am constantly sick & throwing up & I honestly think that the biggest reason is that I am so stressed out. I just don't know what to do. When I'm not preggo I take adderall for my ADHD & take Valium for bad panic attacks & Ativan when I'm feeling anxious!

I need something now, I can't imagine having to go through the rest of this pregnancy without anything. I'm seriously losing it, can't stop crying & am an emotional wreck. Anyone have any experience with anti-anxiety medications & pregnancy? I need something & want to know what others have safely used!

Talk to your doc. While drugs should be avoided, we also need functioning mommies. Find out what your options are. It hurts nothing to ask, know what I mean?

Def talk to your dr. There are safe meds and, like the PP said, a happy mommy is most important! :hugs: KUP

Thanks ladies, I am just super grumpy with my kids & have ZERO patience right now....might be the lack of sleep though as I always feel super tired!

I've had two friends go off those type of meds during pregnancy. But I know they struggled daily. Prayers for you mommy!!! Talking to your dr is the best thing.....there might be something to help your hormones get into balance!
