pregnancy and seizures

I am 30 years old and pregnant with my 2nd child since having my first child my seizures have become more frequent and worse. Having no less then 8 back to back when they start. I am currently taking keppra 5000 mg vimpat 400 mg a day as well as having the VNS implant in my chest at a very high setting nothing seems to be helping is any one else having the same kind of problems? Or complications while they are pregnant or became pregnant?
