Congratulations on the pregnancy scamp!!
Detoxing off benzos {Xanax} can be dangerous and should always be monitored by a doctor...It sounds as though you have already made it through the most concerning time, although I would keep in touch with your prescribing doctor and let him know of any symptoms you have that are of concern!
Some good ideas for coping with the WDs are warm baths, heating pads, mild exercise, not letting yourself get hungry, drinking plenty of fluids and getting your rest. A good, light-hearted movie night with some comfort food {aka popcorn and chocolate! } are also good ideas to take your mind off things!
Melatonin is an all natural sleep aid and Ibuprofen helps with the aches and pains BUT definately check with your doctor FIRST!
Babies are a gift from God and you should be proud of yourself for giving this one such a healthy start!
