    I would talk to your psychiatrist. Thats what I did to see the pros and cons for staying on meds at all. I would talk about which meds are the best. I've decided to stay on meds it would be better for my future baby and me. I've heard Zoloft and Prozac or anyother SSI are good meds. I'm currently on something different because I've had a hard time finding the right med. I wish you luck in deciding what will be best for you and your baby.

    I hated taking 'mainstream' medication for my anxiety & depression, especially when ttc, because it made me more anxious about what i was putting in my body & bad side effects. i'm pretty holistic/naturalistic when it comes to basic health care, but feel that there is a time and place for western medicine. I tried celexa for a little while when my dr. offered it but, like i said, it just made things worse. i have since found that essential oils really work for me. I have made my own blend for panic attacks, which has been a huge blessing when I need a 'quick fix'. 
    Just wanted to give another option & wish you best of luck in finding what works for you!

    NTNP for about a year before actively 
    TTC since April 2013
    Currently testing for infertility cause and hormone imbalance.
    Infertility & ovarian cyst diagnosis: May '14
    B/W: 'good', more ordered to check antibodies & progesterone
    SA: Normal :)
    U/Ss for cyst: who the f knows
    DH's cat scan: showed encapsulated fatty growth; u/s: didn't really show much more
    Breast Specialist: Most likely a large fibroid, but keeping an eye on it, repeat u/s every 6mos 
    HSG: clear tubes, uterus is A-ok
    WHAT'S NEXT: DH's consult with surgeon to discuss next step for growth, either biopsy or surgery~Big discussion with Dr. before any possibility of starting Clomid, since I'll want another u/s before and to be monitored and he doesn't seem into that. I had to force his hand just to order the AMH test so may be looking for another OB
