Bipolar and pregnant.

Sarah

Hey there! So I was diagnosed with Bipolar 1 Disorder about 3 years ago. I was on Lithium 300mg 2 a day for about a year. I stopped taking it because I was feeling extra stable and happy. Well like 2 or 3 months later that went right out the door. So my doctor suggested I try lamictal because I'm trying to get pregnant. It didn't work well for me at all. So I stopped taking it found out I was pregnant. Now what do I do? I'm looking into a psychiatrist for prenatal care but it isn't easy. Any tips suggestions advice? Do you ladies take medication yourself? This is my first pregnancy.
