Hello, so I was prescribed diazepam, Cymbalta and propranolol about 4 years ago for servere mental health problems. My doctor suggested I stay on these as they are all low dose and my mental health deteriorated during the first trimester. I’ve only ever used the diazepam a handful of times during the whole pregnancy. I’m currently 35 weeks pregnant and today I’ve had to take a diazepam because of serious panic attacks which I can’t seem to control, I’ve took 5mg which has eased me but I’m now terrified because I’ve heard taking them in the third trimester can cause the baby to be drowsy when born, I won’t be taking anymore no matter how bad I feel. I just wanted some advice really, i feel awful 😫 baby’s been scanned more times because of my meds and everything is looking good she’s actually measuring bigger than average , no defects on scans and overall they said everything is perfect. I still can’t help but worry 😫 will this one off dose affect her when she’s born.
