How far along are you? When are you due? What number preg is it for you ?

This is my third. I am very early on so I haven't told everyone yet but a few close friends and family. I am just over six weeks. Right now I am feeling so sick. I jinxed myself because just yesterday I was all like wow I was so much sicker at this long in my last pregnancies. Maybe this time will be different. Well no. Today is pretty bad. I feel like my mood is kinda of negative and low but feeling like your going to puke all day can do that I guess. I am also all sensitive and irritable. Hormonal much!

Omg we are practically the same. Too funny. I am due December 14th!

We will not be traveling for the holidays this year!

Were you dxed when you had your first child?

How old is your first born? Boy or girl?

I have two boys. 5 and almost 2

Hello,

I have Bipolar I disorder and have used Lamictal and Lexapro consistently for about 12 years. With my doctor's approval, I am slowly tapering off of the Lexapro, as I intend to have a baby in the next 1 1/2 years. I am using fish oil to aid in the depression. Has anyone had success with a monotherapy like Lamictal? What experiences have you had with fish oil? I take Omega Brite, which has been recommended by my doctor. How have your experiences with pregnancy been? Thanks!
