I have an new medical condition, I've been having problems with seizures.I have had about 5 in past few years. But my most recent has been about 3-4 weeks ago and I don't know what is causing it. IT'S VERY SCARY. MY husband is freaked out with me to, how do I handle it,and is my baby in danger?

There are definitely some risks that having seizures poses to a developing fetus. And some of the medicines prescribed also have some very real risks to them as well. You have to communicate with your doc and you have to determine which med is the safest to take while pregnant and also what med effectively treats your seizures. Goober the pros and cons of all that's involved in your care. Good luck!
