Hi There,

So sorry to hear you are having such a rough time. If you have mental health nurses caring for you, they should be able to advise you about your medication and pregnancy. This website medicinesinpregnancy.org/ is a really useful tool to look at the medicine you are prescribed and pregnancy suitability, then you can chat through with your mental health team. Try not to worry as most areas now have specialist mental health midwives, that support and enable you to have a successful pregnancy, and manage any parenting support you might need. Or you could chat through all these worries with your GP. Good luck.

Best Wishes

Jules
