Getting Pregnant

Can anyone give me information on their pregnancy and Paxil.

Do you have an announcement to make?

It's a class D drug, dangerous to take during pregnancy. Just Google it. Children are born with heart defects.

Now, Katesmom took it while pregnant, of course, doctors said it was safe then.

Here's some info regarding it:

You can also search this site for threads on pregnancy, lots of information.

Well, don't ask Homer or Tim about getting pregnant--they might offer a hands-on demo! LOL

Pokie, we've talked about this in private. All of the pregnancy warnings are listed in the vertical menu at the top of this and every page on PP. Having said that, the problems are real, but rare. Ideally, you wouldn't be taking an SSRI at any point in a pregnancy, but we don't live in a world of ideals. We can only do our best.
