Guest guest Posted October 24, 2007 Report Share Posted October 24, 2007 Hi all, I have RA and a 5 month old baby. I have been managing my RA with Prednisolone while I am breastfeeding although I am doing some serious damage to my hand/finger joints and must soon make a decision as to whether to go back on drugs (Mtx, Humira etc) or have another baby. I am interested in whether anyone has any advice on whether to have my babies close together in terms of age or whether it would be easier to deal with a toddler and baby (so, go back on drugs and wait 1-2 years before having second baby). While my gut tells me that it may be easier to " get my pregnancies out of the way now " (I mean that in a nice way) and then to get back on all drugs and stay on them, as opposed to going back on drugs and then having to detox back off them in order to fall pregnant again, I would love to hear what others feel about this decision. What would you do? I would love your views and/or experience of this. Thanks suzi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
