And confused as to what to do. Abortion is out of the question, and it isn't like a frowned upon pregnancy because I'm getting married,

however how does this affect my baby and my treatment?

How do I stay healthy for him/her?

How do I get better without injuring him/her?

I am so overwhelmed.

This could also explain my depression/ mood swings other than the lyme.

In your other post thing from the otherday when you were asking about your daughter, there were some really good links to info in there you should go back and look.

Hanna - You really need to find a GOOD LLMD if you do not have one at the moment. It's one thing for all of us on here to advise someone what to look into as far as RX &/or Herbal treatment etc., but when a woman is pregnant, that's a whole different ball game.

There is a reason for everything, Hanna. I know you are scared right now & don't know what to do but God is with you, as well as this board. Please know you are not alone. I wish you & your's the best. Blessings!!!

Hanna

Like Raven said - You need to see an LLMD...sooner rather than later.

If you are currently seeing one - call them ASAP and tell them you are pregnant.

Like Mitchell said - there are things that can help ...

blessings,

Dr. L does treat pregnant women, and children. He has experience with this. Since you are already seeing him, call and let him know.

I called him and let him know.

He seems really positive about it, and I'll be starting new antibiotics tomorrow.
