No Pregnancy & meds: Overall neonatologists and pediatricians advise to use meds every sparingly during pregnancy. Drugs cross into the blood stream of the baby .Drugs such as Xanax have been shown to add to the risk of causing congenital abnormalities especially when used during the first trimester. Many women who are pregnant and anxious find cognitive behavior therapy or support therapy helpful. Good luck
