However, I lost my baby at about 8 weeks last week ( I should have been 13 weeks but my uterus and all kept going although my baby died). I was under the worst anxiety and stress of my life during my pregnancy...for the first time there was something that mattered more to me than myself. I was so anxious every day and night I would feel an tightening in my uterus. Finally, fearing for my baby's safety I started my prozac again (which is no longer really helping) and the baby had died anyway.

My concern.....I want to be a mom. I know I will be an great mom, but I am afraid my anxiety will hurt the the baby while it is in my womb. On the other hand...I didn't want to take any meds while I was pregnant.

WHat do I do???? I really have a problem with the OCD, but I don't want to subject any future babies to *any* type of drug.

What do I do?
