Hello mimi,   I don't understand.  Did you have your three kids before you started taking the schizophrenia meds?   Everyone I know who discontinues his or her anti-psychotic drug ultimately relapses and has to be hospitalized.   Yet the truth is, women with schizophrenia who are taking anti-psychotics have gotten pregnant and carried a baby to term and given birth and are now raising their children.   You have to talk to your doctor and see how it's possible to do this, because I don't know the specifics.   From this second question, it seems your doctor is resistant to work with you during a potential pregnancy.   It has been done, I just don't know the details of how you would do it, and you should talk to your doctor or get a second opinion.   Regards, Chris
