I just joined this site- I was diagnosed with Crohn’s about a year ago just a few months after my son and 1st child was born. Although I’ve had IBS forever, I wasn’t surprised with my CD diagnosis as my mother has had Crohn’s and Colitis her whole life. Since diagnosis I’ve been on budesonide, Asacol, Apriso and Cimzia. I now am on Cimzia 2/month injections and recently added 6MP (50mg) to the regimen. I also take lomotil but that’s more to control the diarrhea. I really want to have a 2nd child ASAP but I’ve been told to get into remission first- although it seems like I will never get into full remission. I can’t say that I feel awful all day every day but definitely have sudden urges to go to the bathroom, exhausted almost all the time, and recently gotten a fissure. My blood tests keep coming back showing no improvements so I’m hoping that by adding the 6MP it will soon. My doctor also indicated that he believes I will have to stay on meds throughout my pregnancy (once I get the go ahead) even though I don’t want to take any meds and didn’t even take a Tylenol with my first pregnancy. He’s been saying that it’s healthier for the baby if I stay well on meds than to take a chance of having a flare while being pregnant. I understand that point however, Cimzia and 6MP seem to be very strong meds and it makes me extremely nervous to continue taking them while being pregnant. Has anyone been on these meds or other meds during their pregnancy? Any advice would be appreciated- thanks!
