Hi I also have epilepsy and I have two beautiful daughters the only thing is your are considered high risk and also you may have a lot more ultrasounds with your pregnancy and they will make sure that the medication is good during pregnancy. Also if I may add epilepsy is most of the time hereditary so my oldest daughter who is 9 also has epilepsy.

Hi i have a 4yr old already but i conceived her when i stopped having sezuires after 6years but the last 2years my epilepsy has got worse so im nervous now but touchwood iv not had one for 5months now.. My little girl is fine atm.. How did you find pregnancy and you have a normal labour?

With my second daughter I got pregnant without even trying she was truly a surprise she is now 2 my labor was fine but I did go into premature labor with her but she turned out to be a good birth weight and she is developing just fine and I also had seizures while I was pregnant with her.

What medication are you taking im on lamotrogine if thats how its spelt lol lol i just hope when i do become pregnant i dont have any sezuires or complications :-/ how long have you had epilepsy? X

I have had epilepsy since the age of 5 and I am currently on Topamax but while I was pregnant i was taking Keppra.
