Topamax while pregnant

Jackie
Has anyone else taken topamax while pregnant? I have epilepsy and take 25 mg twice a day. I know it can cause birth defects but it's safer for me to be on it to control my seizures than to not take it and have a seizure while pregnant. I am currently 5w4d. Just wondering if anyone is taking or has taken topamax in their pregnancy and how it turned out.
