I think you need to read this and do your own homework:

This isn't just a run of the mill risk. There is a very high risk of severe problems. I too agree that you should follow your doctor's lead. Also, per the info in the link, you should have been very thoroughly informed of the risks, and made to sign a special consent forms, as well as consent to regular pregnancy testing.
Read the link for more info.
Best to you.
Dear, I think you need to think of the consequences. Early development is critical. The first trimester and first days are so important in the development of a child. If your doctor feels strongly that this is best, I'd follow what your doctor has told you. You are literally just barely pregnant. good luck
Wow, what a tough situation. But, I'm glad you're not rushing into any decisions here. In fact, I would think of getting a second opinion. You may even want to see if you can connect with a Crisis Pregnancy Center in your area and get some help and advice from them (you can check out the yellow pages or look into something called OptionLine). They should have experience in pregnancies of this nature, and visiting them would be free of charge. Another suggestion would be to check out some organizations that specialize in helping in pregnancies like yours. I've heard of a couple-Perinatal ComfortCare and String of Pearls. I think there's a lot of info on adverse pregnancy diagnoses on their websites if you want to look them up. Just a thought. Well, my prayers are with you right now, friend!
Yeah you have a point but this medication strictly forbids pregnancy! When I got given the tablets I didn't get a talk on it! Stupid doctor! Xx
I'm 16 and I'm have a baby. Right I'm 11 weeks and I was taking medicine for my back and I stopped when I found out I was 2 months pregnant. You can still have the baby, I'm sure the medicine hasn't done anything to the baby. Plus with you eating healthy and taking vitamins might end up giving you a healthy baby. I would keep the baby and if you don't want the baby their is still always adoption. Hope this helps.
