See epileptologist: Seeing an OB/GYN is a good first step. Because you have epilepsy, it would be important to involve your neurologist (ideally a subspecialty-trained epileptologist) in your pregnancy planning as well. Depending on the anti-seizure medication(s) that you take for epilepsy, the seizure specialist can offer guidance regarding possible effects on your fetus. http://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/447790_8
