Question

Would having epilepsy and taking the medication i do ever stop me having a baby?

Answer

No, having epilepsy and taking medication wouldn't stop you having a baby. But it 's a really good idea to discuss wanting a baby, before you start trying. Your epilepsy nurse, specialist or GP would be good places to start. This is because some anti-epileptic drugs are much safer than others if you're pregnant. So it really helps to plan ahead.
