Okay, so normally, my period would've started by now. But it hasn't. And I have been feeling insanely naseous (I know i'm spelling that wrong, but oh well). Even though both of us have been wanting another baby, I'm a little nervous. Since I tried coming off of my meds in order to TTC and saw that it wasn't going to work very well, my psychiatrist informed me that he would not put me on any medication until AFTER my 1st trimester (which really bothers me since there are AT LEAST 3 differents meds I know of that have been ruled safe for pregnancy). I just don't think I'm ready to be off my meds for so long yet. I'm still working super hard to keep my anxiety and depression under control. But if I'm pregnant, I'll have to get off my meds, and go through all the insurance red tape to find another psychiatrist that WILL prescribe something safe for pregnancy. Then.....see if a safe medicine works. Cymbalta and Buspar (what I'm on now) is the only thing that's worked for me. Two of the meds I know that are safe haven't worked for me in the past. But I'm hoping that since I didn't need medicine while I was pregnant with ZoeJane (because of the happy hormones, lol), that I won't really need them with my second pregnancy.
Well, I guess I'll now for sure soon. Wish me luck!
