I am currently taking anxiety medications and some diet pills. They are not ok for pregnant people, but if I am not pg yet, can I keep taking it? I mean can I take it up to when I find out I'm pg? Does it hurt the baby during the first 4 weeks??

Some meds put a disclaimer that those who are trying to conceive should not take these meds. So, please talk to ur Dr as some of them are not advisable to even take in the 2 week wait until u find out if ur preggo or not. Yes..Some of these anxiety pills Will hurt ur baby.

diet pills are not great since they usually contain lots of caffine and that isnt good for TTC or the preggos.

But if you are taking them and get preggo just stop right away when you become preggo and im sure your baby wouldnt be effected. There are plenty of anxiety pills that you can take when you are preggo so you may want to talk to the doc about putting you on them B4 you get preggo so that you dont have to go thru the change while you are pregnant (which can be very stressful and may bring on anxiety).
