Not during pregnancy but was diagnosed six weeks after delivery 47 years ago. Put on high dose of Prednisone initially. I was breastfeeding and supposedly safe for baby. My daughter was starved and nana came along and started her on formula. She thrived.

Sorry, i am not much help re pregnancy, but Steroids and breastmilk certainly not.

Good luck with your journey
