beta blocker and pregnancy

[christal28]

hi i am trying to have a baby but i have a heart problem that i have to take beta blockers for. i lost one while i was on ateneol so my cardio  switched it to toproyl 50 mg, my  question is has anyone taken beta blockers while preganate and had a healthy baby or know anyone who has? i am scared to death and would love to know what to expect, my cardio wasn't sure. please help

the doctor said topyol is a classification c and is commonly used during pregnancy but he wasn't sure about the complications that can be caused by the meds he truly does not want me to become prego but he knows i am stubborn on this b/c iam the only one left in my family to give my parents grandkids (on both my hubby's and my sides) my mom missed my first two being babies and up until they were toddlers so she wants to see one from birth and i truly would love to give my family that gift. the doc is worried after any woman has more then one child so who knows? at least he is helping but i really want to know the dangers of the meds while pregnate and after the baby is born. I know atonenol is horrible but what about topyrol
