Hello, here to share my little story cause I was also worried about the risks of tramadol while pregnant. I've been taking tramadol for about 2 years. Around 3-5 a day. When I got pregnant which was 5 months ago I started worrying so I tried to stop cold Turkey. Didn't work as well as I hoped. Had headaches,bad mood swings, muscle aches, restless legs, and it was very hard going to sleep and staying a sleep. I also have a 2 year old so it was difficult. I couldnt handle it so i started taking it again and decided to try to wean myself. Wich worked wonderfully ^_^. I started only taking 2 a day. 1 in the morning 1 at night for 2 weeks. Then slowed down to 1 in the morning to 1/2 at night. Then eventualy went down to 1/2 a day last month . Its not going to be easy. I still did have withdrawl but they were manageable. Slight headache, only 3-6 hrs of sleep, easily frustrated. Annoying but I could cope. And recently I just took my last half about 2 weeks ago. I'm very proud of myself. And my restless leg syndrome stopped completely. Everything is back to normal. I am 5 months now and me and my little man(just found out im having a boy!) Is doing alright. the first week without any tramadol will be alittle hard but the symptoms slowly goes away. And is not that hard to cope with.the first 2 days you will start to feel better. Anyone can do this if you just have an addiction. Takes time and patience. But you will make it through. Baby steps helps. I will post an update soon as he's born. Wich will be in January.
