No need need stop : Based on human data, the risk is low to fetal harm within the first and second trimester. Make an appointment with your obstetrician to discuss risk/benefit vs weaning off vs alternatives.

Quetiapine pregnancy: Whether to stop or continue quetiapine will depend on the reason why you are on quetiapine. It wouldn't be wise idea to stop it without consulting your GP . GP will be able to get obstetrician opinion to make a plan and guide you too . Please consult your GP or obstetrician.
