Anxiety meds while pg?

Hello! I am soo happy that I found this board!! I have a question that hopefully some of you have went threw or can help me with! I have been suffering from anxiety for the past 5 years and have taken Effexor XR 150 mg and it worked great for me...with my last 2 pg's I was able to stop taking the meds, adn than continue once my child was born...Well when I got pg this time my Dr wanted me to stop my meds, which I did....and I have been a wreck since then.....My anxiety is out of control...I know that my 3 other kids are suffering because of it as well as me and my dh. I have heard women say they took zoloft threw their pg's and were fine...anyone here have done this??? I go back to my ob on Mon 5/1 and I want to discuss possibly starting a new med just to help take the edge off...Any insight or thoughts would be appreciated!!!
