Pregnant with anxiety disorder, has anyone ever had to up their dose or switch medication?

I would talk to a psycyhiatrist about it,and have them communicate between the two of them .That's how I did it with my depression/anxiety. I've found that Prozac works best for me,and I was on xanax and elavil before I found out I was pregnant,so it's able to be done. I would talk to a psychiatrist,because that's who would know your mental disorder better,I talk to my psychiatrist and my OB,and they communicate between the two of them. I've read that paxil is one that is worse,but in your case it may be the only one that will work for you,so I would talk to a psychiatrist. I switched my medicines like that,and even to me it seemed to make more sense.
