Hi just wondering if anyone can help
I started taking sertraline about 6 months ago. Im now 9.5 weeks pregnant.
When I found out I was pregnant I tried to come off them and I got it down to 25mg everythird day (was originally on 50mg daily). But on the third day I found toward the end of the day i was feeling very dizzy and had difficulty concentrating so I increased the dose to 25mg every other day when I was about 6 weeks.
This is our second baby and we definitely wanted it but since I found out I was pregnant I have felt really low in mood and terrified how I will cope with two. Some days I feel so low I just want to stay in bed all day but cant cos I have to look after my son. But other days im not too bad. Im wondering if the instability is caused by the sertraline.
I don't want to be on ad's while im pregnant but Im wondering whether I should increase my dose to 25mg daily or whether its going to be dangerous to baby to keep messing with dose? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I just want to feel normal again x
