Hi, I was wondering if anyone knew of any natural treatments (like herbal supplements) for anxiety that you can take while pregnant. I'm in my second trimester and anxiety and mood swings are very bad right now and I refuse to go back on my Effexor and can't take the Ativan I used to for anxiety. I believe herbal meds may be better anyway but can't find any that are safe for consumption while pregnant. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I am not sure about natural ones but I am pretty sure Bus par is a category B and would be OK to take. I would ask about it. It probably will not be as good as the ativan but maybe better than nothing. I amso sorry you are having to go through this during your pregnancy. I know how hard it is esp. With the hormone changes too.
