Pregnant and Seroquel - I hate it :(

Pregnant and Seroquel - I hate it :(

I am 32weeks preggo and I am on seroquel, my dr wants me to take 400mg but i can't - i am taking 200mg and i hate it.  It is the worst med ever and it is the only thing he seems to want me on and I feel I have no choice.  I don't know what to do because I am having some serious anxeity issues :(  OB said zoloft but i can't do that because that will make it worst I am sure.  Should i get a new dr at this late stage??  He took me off the med that really really worked litmital(sp).  Everything about this pregnancy has been horrible since then.  He did give me some nueriton(Sp).

Hi Kris,
I am 37 weeks pregnant and I am taking 400mg Seroquel.  I love the stuff as it let's me sleep, so I don't go completely manic.  I was taking 300mg but I was an angry basket case the higher dose calms me down a lot.  Last pregnancy the pdoc took me off of it and I was in the hospital for 6 weeks.  Seroquel does cause alot of daytime drowsiness.  My pregnancy has been awful too.
You can get a new doctor if you think that is what would help you better.  I had to get a new OB GYN and I felt good that I did.  
Why did he take you off of the other stuff?
Hugs
