I would like to hear some of your thoughts on having children when you have been diagnosed with bipolar disorder. I know there are a lot of people that are bipolar and successful as parents.

Have any of the women out there gone off your meds while you were pregnant? What was the experience like?
What is it like being bipolar and a parent?

I have been married a few years now but it's not something I like to tell the world about and everyone keeps asking me when I am having kids. As of right now I think it is probably not a good idea for me to have them. My current medications are not good during pregnancy, you are not supposed to breast feed on them, and I don't do well off of medication.
Thanks for this!
