Antidepressants during pregnancy

Ki2021

Hi ladies! Last year, I was diagnosed with major depressive disorder and had almost a 7 month major episode (BAD) and I was finally able to get on meds that were starting to REALLY work for me when I got pregnant. When i found out I was pregnant, I made the decision to stop them because the one I was on doesnt have as much research on it, but was linked to miscarriage in some cases.

Now that I’m in the second trimester (15 weeks) I feel more comfortable exploring my options to get out ahead of the depression. I was previously on 300mg Wellbutrin, 10mg Prozac, and 54mg concerta for adhd. I know I can’t start the concerta again, but I guess my question is—

Has anyone stayed on Wellbutrin specifically through their pregnancy?

Im open to options like zoloft that are considered safer, but I loved the combo we finally figured out and would love to feel that good again. They only had me set to take them for 6 months before weaning off, so I just want to finish that 6 month treatment to avoid another episode sooner.
