I did.  I've taken Cymbalta for about a year now for anxiety issues.  The pregnancy was a huge surprise, so I didn't stop taking it until the day after I found out I was pregnant which was at about 5 weeks.  I also had a spell of vertigo before I knew I was pregnant and the dr. prescribed me Meclizene.  I've also got soriasis on my head (yucky but better than in visible places I guess) but I've had to use a topical gel on those spots (I only have a few) on my head or I walk around scratching my head like a crazy woman.  SO I spent much of today looking on the internet researching all of these drugs and hoping that none of them will hurt the baby.  My dr. appt. is on the 27th and I will be taking a bag full of everything with me so she can see what I've taken during the pregnancy.  Until then, I'm being a worrywort.  Just wondering if anyone else has taken something before knowing they were pregnant.

 I wouldn't worry too much. its not adviced to stop asap either. tak to your doc and maybe he can put you on something that is ok. dont feel bad im sure your baby is fine.

Sarah,

I am now 21 wks pregnant and didn't find out until six weeks.  I was on doxycycline for infection (known to cause defects and death) and klonopin for anxiety(known for causing cleft lip and palate as well as other defects)  I stopped taking these things the day I found out!!!  Went to see the dr.  He was relieved to find out that I had discontinued the meds, but he said that the amount of meds I was taking would be okay, just to be sure not to take them anymore.  I thought I could get by without taking anything for my anxiety, whatever, I had to go back to him about two weeks later, I HAVE SEVERE ANXIETY ISSUES, and he prescribed zoloft, which might I say has worked out very well.  I may even stay on it after the birth.  He prescribed 50mg however, that made me drowsy so I take 25mg every morning.  We went for our ultrasound two weeks ago and were having a healthy baby boy.  I wouldn't stress much, call the dr. office and explain that you need to see the dr. to discuss your meds and alternative options, trust me, if they''re any good they will see you to discuss it or have the nurse call you and then consult with the dr and get back to you, hope this helps

i took birth control clear up until a month after i was pregnant because i had no clue and with my first baby i took advil and a few other medsuntil i knew i was pregnant and my son turned out just fine...just check with your doctor but you should be fine! 

With my son I was 13 years old and I was taking diet pills and on diet foods and my son turned out great. I didn't find out I was with him until I was 7 months along cuz I had no symptoms at all.. But hopefully the baby is ok and best of luck to ya

I was newly pregnant and drank 3 glasses of wine!  I almost never drink more than a glass or so and I don't think I saw the bottom of the glass that night (I was only about 3 weeks along I think) and then the following week I took Advil.   Then I started having the suspicion that I might be pregnant and I stopped taking anything except prenatal vitamins.  The midwife said that usually what you do before you find out that you're pregnant will rarely do anything to harm the baby.  It's what you do after you find out that is more important.

I was also given Xanax (pre-preggo) for anti anxiety, but she said that if the anxiety is still a problem they will give me something safe to take during pregnancy.
