Hi everyone,
Really hope someone can help me here.. I am shocked to find out I am pregnant with baby number 3 I have been taking pregabalin and diazepam for about 18 months my dr said it's fine to carry on taking but I'm not so sure I've read a lot of posts about the pregabalin if taken in first 4 weeks you are 3x more likely to have a baby with major birth defects! Obviously the first 4 weeks you don't actually know you're pregnant now I'm worried sick! After my 2 daughters I have had two miscarriages in a row so I'm already high risk!
Has anyone had any advice or experience in this?
Thanks for reading 😘
