pregnant

[girty857]

i have been on zoloft for a little over a year, i just stopped taking it, because i found out that im pregnant, im feeling dazed and and im emotional and feel nauseaus on and off through the day and im moody, i was wondering how long it take to get zoloft completley out of your system and the way that im feeling now, is it the zoloft or just being pregnant?

Absolutely positively talk to your OB ASAP.  There are many different options during pregnancy, and the risks and benefits need weighed carefully, with your doctor.  You should NOT stop taking the Zoloft abruptly.  That could actually do more harm than staying on your stable dose until you can talk this over with your OB.

Call him/her ASAP!

Best of luck to you!!  Let us know how you're doing!

Pregnancy hormones aren't helping matters, but SSRI withdrawal isn't pleasant.  I would wean off of the Zoloft.

Hi,
Congratulations on your pregnancy.  I would talk to your doctor and see if it is best for your to wean off of it. I have taken zoloft for many years and i stayed on it with both pregnancies, I'm not suggesting you do, it's a personal choice.  Everything was fine with both of my kids and it's proven to be a safe drug for pregnancy.

I also feel funny if I stop taking it, you really shouldn't stop cold turkey.

Best of luck to you

You need to speak with your OB/GYN immediately. You cannot simply stop taking Zoloft after being on it for a year. That explains all the symptoms you're having...........you're going though withdrawal.
Please call your doctor NOW and let him/her know what is happening.
Peace
