Post Bipolar and pregnancy
We are planning on trying for another baby August 2012. I need some experiences from others with going off of mood stabilizers. I'm on Trileptal and Cellexa currently. I decreased my meds with my first pregnancy, I didn't have any issues until after my son was born. My post partum depression almost got the best of me. I have been diagnosed with PTSD, Bipolar Type 2, and Depression. I worry about going off the mood stabilizer because I never went off completely with my first pregnancy, I was on a different med at that time. Suggestions on coping mechanisms and any other words of wisdom.
Thanks
