Hello babybrookes. I would hold off taking the Keppra untill after the baby is born for the side effects of taking the drug would be occuring just around the time you were to deliver the new born. Once your baby has entered the world, then you might sit down with a pyschiatrist, or counsellor, decide what the best course would be to take. Best wishes to you and I hope you have a healthy, happy, baby,pledge
