Hi all,
This is my first time posting. I am 5 weeks pg. and was taking 2 pills of 250mg. of depakote daily. I just called my previous psy. and he recommended I stop the Depakote ASAP. So I will. I see my current psy on Monday to see what she recommends...Also, my OB/GYN is encouraging having the pg. terminated :( I was just diagnosed Bipolar 2 last March and this will be my third child after being hospitalized 2 after having my two children. Before having my children, and my episodes after pg. the drs. thought I had postpartom psychosis..only later to be diagnosed as Bipolar 2. I NEVER thought I could conceive naturally as my first child was with the help ofIVF and my second we had started the IVF process and were pg. in the early stages of the IVF process. Can you please provide some insight? I am also 39 years old so my age doesn't help any and from what I am reading on the Internet, Depakote can have severe side effects like birth defects etc. SO I AM so AFRAID. Please share any ideas/insight or personal experiences....thanks so very much.
