The only effect I have ever read about, is that it can get into the breast milk. Never really seen any other bad effects. Just be sure to let your doctor know. He / she will put you right on what you should and shouldn't do.

Hi there,
You must take the advice of your doctor or midwife its always best to check on any meds when pregnant,
Take care,

You need to Google> klonopin and pregnancy, your question will be answered. Talk to your doctor about this. I wouldn't stop taking the klonopin to fast. Fortunately you do not take much so don't worry.

Just talk to the doctor.  Taking Klonopin at such a low dosage may be acceptable if the benefits outweigh the risks.  Cleft pallet is one risk.  Also, if Klonopin makes you uncomfortable (I used to take it, take Xanax XR now), there may be another drug in a different category that you could try.  There are a few anxiety/depression drugs that can be taken during pregnancy.  Don't freak out, and don't mess with your dose until you have spoken with the doctor...
