Did your OB/GYN prescribe this? Or Primary Care physician, if it was your primary care physician/psych md, then you need to call your OB/GYN. If your OB prescribed it, I would call them and talk to them about the possibility of side effects. Check out this site: Lexapro FAQs: Women Taking Lexapro there is some good information about the drug and pregnancy on there, also it clearly states that there has not been studies done on pregnant women that were taking Lexapro, and lists other preferred antidepressants for pregnant women.

Yes I know some sites say that but 5 of them said it causes major problems and there's even a lawyr for pregnant. Women takeing this med that have caused problems, and the ob gave it to me

And the only side effect she said there was was cry a lot in the baby

Lexapro is a Category ( C) in pregnancy. This means that the benefits usually outweigh the risks.

Basically this means that there is more benefit of you taking it than the risks associated for the baby.
