Pregnancy and Asthma

Hi everyone. Is anyone pregnant or has been pregnant with Asthma? I have asthma and currently take Advair, Singulair and Albuterol as needed. I am curious to see what other people take or took and if everything was ok with their babies. I know I have to be on these meds because I have to breathe and the baby has to breathe but it does worry me alittle bit. I am also still cramping which is weird because yesterday I did not cramp at all and today I am again. I hope it goes away soon. I find out about my HCG levels tomorrow and maybe that will put my mind to ease. My first pregnancy eneded in Miscarriage after only 5+ weeks.
