LisaHello!! I started Dex when I was 5 weeks along. I believe I was on 1.75mg a day. It was 4 years ago, so I don’t really remember. I had a CVS when I was 10 weeks along. The next day we found out that we were having another girl (I have a 6-year old daughter with SWCAH), so I had to stay on the Dex until we found out whether she would have CAH or not. Around 16 weeks we found out that she did not have CAH, so I was weaned off the Dex. It only took a week to get off of it. I was very moody on the Dex. I had a short fuse so to speak. I would freak out over little things. It seemed like I was always hungry, and be prepared for stretch marks. After I went off of the Dex, all of these things went away, and I felt "normal" again. It doesn’t happen to everyone, but this was my experience. If I had to do it again, I would.
Congratulations, and I hope you have a great pregnancy!!
