Hello all... THere has been a lot of posts and controversty about AED's and Pregancy. I want to know if anyone out there has taken Lamictal while pregnant? What other drugs have people taken while expecting adn what were the side effects? Does anyone really know of a safe AED? Also I know they categorise AED's for pregnancy I am aware of C and D are there any drugs about a C? --Steph

I am also curious about Lamictal & Pregnancy. Should you become pregnant or consult with a Fetal Diagnostic Center, OBGYN, or find some helpful information, please share. I am interested to learn more about the same subject right now since I am on Lamictal myself, and want to have a second child. Good luck to you! http://www.healthboards.com/ubb/smile.gif
