Pregnancy experience

My child was only 1 pound till 5 month then my baby started to gain more weight as we had been checking weekly as It looked like my baby had a whole in her heart. As some kids can get cleft lips. Taking Trokendi XR (topiramate) while pregnant can increase the risk of birth defects like cleft lip and/or palate, smaller-than-average size at birth, and potentially neurodevelopmental problems. The drug can also pass into breast milk, causing potential side effects in nursing infants such as diarrhea and drowsiness. My baby at 8 months was full size. Honestly still breastfeeding and the most healthiest thing for my child, is doing amazing. At 2.5 years breastfeeding my child the doctor has supported my and my child. The child has been allergic to every milk out there lactose milk as been the only milk thats not allergic reaction. Being a mother with seizures I have a very supported husband. I now take trokendi xr 400mg because breastfeeding and my weight take in account always asks your neurologist, to test for how much you need. Cuz, you don't need to overdose or be underdosed.It makes a huge difference.I had a seizures a year ago.
