Deemed High Risk!

in High-Risk Pregnancy
I have recently been classified as high risk at 26 weeks (Im currently 28w 4 days) due to having seizure like episodes- I have been put on 250mg of Keppra twice daily. Im seeing a neurologist next week. Im just wanting to know what risk this poses to my baby? Is there anything I should be on the look out for ? Can I still breast feed while taking the keppra?

    These are all questions that need to be answered by a qualified medical professional; very few of us on TB are.
    Your neurologist will be able to help you understand the risks and benefits of the medication as well as any side effects. Your OB would likely be the best resource for medication and breastfeeding information.

    I understand that users on here are not medical professionals and definitely planned on asking my neurologist when I see him next week! I was not substituting advice over the Internet for professional advice I was more looking for personal experiences :)
