has anyone had any experience of taking this AD while TTC or during pregnancy? We are TTC number 3 and I have been on these tablets for about 4 months now and I can't get a drs appointment for another 2 weeks!

Thanks!

yes!i was put on prozac at 20 weeks in my last pg as i suffered badly from depression,it didnt cause any probs,dd2 was healthy etc.
i was still taking prozac when i conceived this time(i am 12 weeks pg now)but was told by my gp to stop taking them,gradually ,over a week and that i could start them again after 12 weeks if need be(im going back 2morro!!).ive read up on it on the net and there doesnt seem to be any evidence of it causing probs in the first trimester but my gp wasnt willing to take the risk

OK!
Thanks for your message! I will keep taking them for the moment I think and discuss it with my GP when I have my appointment in a couple of weeks!

Thanks again!
