Meds?

I have been diagnosed with several disorders that cause a lot of pain. I have been taking certain medications for years and I'm not sure what I should do during this pregnancy. All the meds that I take are class C drugs and we don't really know what the effects on the baby could be. I took a few meds during me first pregnancy with twins and they were born at 34 weeks very healthy. Have any if you had to take meds during pregnancy? I have stopped my meds but I am in a lot of pain and my dr advised me to take my meds because if I am in pain and my Bp is up it could be harmful to the baby. I'm only 6 weeks so I know this is a crucial time for development. Any advice?

  • Honestly, listen to your OB. Take what you need to. Maybe talk about lowering your dosage, but a high BP is not any better than a Class C. GL.
