Paige - thanks so much for saying this - I'm on Lexapro and need it for anxiety. My RE told me though if I got pregnant that I would have to get off of it - I don't want to. I guess every pregnancy is different and at my age he wouldn't want to take a chance. My sister-in-law has been on Prozac or Zoloft (not sure which one) for both of her pregnancies and my nieces are great!
