Schedule 5 drugs and pregnancy

I have a neurologist, a specialist neurologist, a psychiatrist and OBGYN busy trying to reach mutual agreement as to what the best approach is =(

Unfortunately the one condition is neurological and if I go off it both baby (lack of oxygen = potential brain damage) and I are at risk and if I stay on it only baby (cleft lip/palette) is at risk. Difficult one..and there are no alternate medications.

I would love to go off all of them but don't think this is going to happen.

Juno you may want to discuss this with your gynae and the person prescribing the meds to make sure of the correct way of going about it and what the risks are. There may be other medcations that are fairly effective.

I have a bladder condition that required a whole host of meds including antidepresnats and other meds and I weaned myself off them and was okay, but each drug is okay and I wasn't using them for the intended use.

I am on three schedule 5 drugs which increases my chances signifcantly of cleft lip/palette.

The one condition is not life threatening. The second one is potentially dangerous to both me and baby if I go off the meds completely. I managed to get down to one drug from two with my last pregnancy but this time have more to contend with. For some reason I am also far more sensitive to what can go wrong in pregnancies so have become rather paranoid.

I was just going to leave it to fate but just can't so my TTC'ing plans for this month have been put on hold.

Anybody who had to wean themselves off hectic drugs before falling pregnant? Did it go ok?
