How long I have to stop medicine is safe before get pregnancy?

New study shows that the differences between breastfed babies and formula fed babies disappear by age 5. Before that you can see some differences, but the lifelong benefits they used to think were there are indistinguishable by age 5.

This is the study @LED was referring to

This may sound stupid to say, but when I stopped medications like zyprexa I got a very bad physical withdrawal
if you take it while ur pregnant and then once you give birth could the baby go through withdrawal?

Yes, withdrawal is one risk that a doctor and patient would have to consider.
