Epilepsy while pregnant

Jodi
Does anyone else have epilepsy? I mostly only get nocturnal tonic-clonic (grand mal) seizures. My doctor told me to stop taking my medicine (Lamictal) when I found out I was pregnant as it wasn't good for the baby. I'm now 20 weeks. I haven't had any problems so far but lately I've been I've started having seizures again. Could this be dangerous for the baby? Is it better to get back on the medicine or have the seizures? I'm going to talk to my doctor about this on Wednesday but I was wondering if any other mothers have had this problem
