Re: We think we're pregnant....

CONGRATULATIONS!

Several of us have had babies lately. I had my 2nd son on 6/25. I stayed on

Enbrel and low dose prednisone thru the whole pregnancy.

Please, please, please consider participating in the OTIS study on RA and

pregnancy. http://www.raandpregnancy.org/

[ ] We think we're pregnant....

Okay I'm usually a lurker, but today I needed to post.

FYI: I'm 28, and had RA since I was 17.

I was only off the pill for 5 weeks and low and behold, I think we're

pregnant! I've taken 2 at home tests and both were positive. We are

heading to the OBGYN at lunch today for the " real " test.

My RA is doing well. I'm only on Enbrel and tylenol (1 or 2 time

daily) -- Because I knew we were trying, I lowered my Enbrel dose to

every other week. I tried to come off previously but after week 3, I

was miserable.

Enbrel is a category B drug -- same as tylenol. My doc said its a my

discretion. Anynone else had any dealings with pregnancy and Enbrel?

Thanks!
