Pregnancy With Fibromyalgia
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

Hi everyone I found out I was pregnant 2 weeks ago, I really worried about how I’m going to deal with the pregnancy. I came of all medication once I found out and I’ve been in pain since, not sleeping and just feeling exhausted. I know pregnancy in general makes you feel like crap but some days I’ve been in tears with the pain! Just wanted to see how others who have had a pregnancy with Fibro have coped.

Many thanks xx

When ever you stop meds quickly that has been helping, especially pain and antidepressants you should be closely watched by your physician. Some withdrawals from pain meds are sometimes worse the the pain you started taking them. You probably already have but be honest and let him/her know what you are going through. They can help ease things. I am sorry you are going through pregnancy and fibromyalgia together. I pray I Jesus Name He will guide you and give you strength to get thrkugh each day. One at a time. He is everwhere, so He is with you right now. Because of the sacrifice of Jesus you can just come to your Heavenly Father knowing He loves. and cares very much about all of your issues. When you pray, pause and meditate on His preseance and listen for the still small voice that comes by an inclination. an idea that gives you Peace. May God bless you. In Jesus Name Amen

A lot of women that suffer from chronic pain that get pregnant their pain diminishes.
Also it could be because you did not ween your self off of your meds. Good luck I hope things improve for you.

Mormin' Lois !!! Congratulations on your pregnancy !!! I had 4 children - the 1st 3 in three yrs. I didn't notice any difference during pregnancies or after !!! I was not diagnosed with Fibro until they were all pretty well grown !! I just put one foot in front of the other. I didn't get REALLY bad until my husband of 33+ yrs. ran off w his secretary !!! I guess it's the emotional stress that gets me most of all !! I suffered from Fibro for as long as I can remember - I'm 85+. I thought everyone hurt , was tired, had fog, and anxiety attacks for all those yrs., so I didn't think I had anything unusual !!! I think maybe for me, as I was excited and looking forward to the babies and expected good things !! I had GREAT experiences !! So I guess, Lois, I have to say, BE POSITIVE and expect the best !! Expecting the best always worked for me !! Try and kee[p
