HI ladies, I haven't posted in about 6 months! I am now 32 weeks pregnant. I have lupus nephritis. They have had me on Imuran since the beginning of the pregnancy and apparently it is working wonders for me. My kidney function is normal, my bp has been normal the whole time (with no meds).. and I am scheduled to deliver in a few weeks (they dont wan to risk me going full term)! I am so happy, I also found out that I can breast feed even though I am on imuran, that they have done newer studies and they found out that there was no noteable side affects in the babies!! I just wanted to share good news
