You were quite right to stop the enalpril - it is contraindicated in pregnancy, particularly in the 2nd and 3rd trimesters. It does seem to be OK in the first but the advice is you should stop taking it as soon as possible. Which you have done.

There are other medications that are safe in pregnancy and I expect the doctors will switch you to one of those.

Good luck - hope everything goes well!
