hii. i am 9 weeks and 5 days and yes she does, i was on two mgs for a while then went to one after i found out i was pregnant a month ago and about a week and a half ago i went to .5 mg sometimes i would take a tinnny piece at night but i haven't in a couple days. i am just so sick of being on this stuff. dont get me wrong its helped so much, i would honestly be dead without it but it has kinda changed me. i have such bad memory now. and im angry 95% of the time. i dont know it may be because i was on heroin for 4 1/2 years and my brain chemistry is different.
sorry for babbling lol

Hi and welcome!   If you don't mind me asking how far along are you?  Does you OB know that you are on subs and are tapering?

As far as what is safe while pregnant I will bow out to the more knowledgeable people on here... Hang tight im sure someone will be along to answer better about that.

Stick around
