I read the posted e-mails about adivan during pregnancy. They provide anicdotal info...assuring readers that it's perfecting safe to use adivan during the first 10 weeks of pregnancy. I want to believe this, as I've got a horrible bout of INSOMNIA that has started since conception. I want to know if there's any studies that can assure me that adivan is safe. OR is there anything else that would help me stop waking up in the middle of the night?
THANK YOU!!!!
Renee
