Make sure you talk to your doc about all medications as soon as you find out you are pregnant. 🤰🫶 And if you haven't already, and it is your first pregnancy, ask your doc to test for your #Rhfactor to avoid complications, like miscarriage. 🩵🦓🩵

#depakote the other name for it, extremely bad. I was told it's not good to be on forever also. Can cause #kidney #failure First med ever has, it did work for a long time and prevented #migraines but eventually stopped working, took awhile to get on good meds

OMG she and others need to read #medication bottles then. #depakote which is another name you should never be on for pregnancy or ever if possible. I'm no longer on, hated it. I was told by every #epileptologist Very important to have them vs regular #neurologist You need one for that speciality
