Should I or Shouldn't I
Pregnancy at 42 with add/depression
I am in need of some advise.I have a therapist but can't see her until March. I am 42 yrs old, married and we have 2 beautiful children, 4 and 6. I have ADD and depression. I have been trying to have a third for 3 years on and off. I am not sure if I want a third child or not. I am afraid of being off meds and then being overwelmed after the baby would be born. My psych. Dr. is keeping me on 10mg of Ritalin because we are trying to get pregnant, but it doesn't do much for me. We have been trying steady now since July and no luck yet. I am using Clomid, but my periods are not so regular. I have had my thyroid and hormone levels checked and both are normal. I cant get much done and can't consentrate on anything much else. I am happy with my kids and our family. I would love to have a baby for all the wonderful reasons. I dont know if I really want to start again or not. But I dont know if maybe I just can't let go. What can I do to settle myself with these thoughts that keep mixing around in my brain. Please some advise me.
