Pregnancy experience

Rdempsey 1 October, 2025With issuesLamotrigine er

In my 2nd trimester, I had one gran mal that I quit breathing and started turning blue between 7-12 mins and had to have CPR. During that one I knocked myself out on the lip of a tile shower and had locked the bathroom door and my husband almost had to break the door down to get to me. Approximately 1 month after the first one, I had another severe one and quit breathing again and was hospitalized put on a baby monitor for 3 days. Thankfully most of the rest of the pregnancy itself was safe, til we got to my 36hr labor/delivery. They were so scared I was going to have a seizure and crush him, that by the time he did come, I had 6 epidurals and couldn't even feel the pressure to push.
