Most new mothers worry about everything when it comes to the health and well being of their babies. Researchers announced recently that mothers who need anti-seizure medications to control conditions like epilepsy can take certain medications without fear that they may be harming their little ones.

The study will be presented at the American Academy of Neurology annual meeting, in Chicago. "The children of mothers who breast-fed while on the epilepsy medications actually scored consistently higher on IQ tests than those children in the study who were not breast-fed. However, the results were not significantly different after adjusting for the mother's intelligence as the children who were breast-fed also had higher IQs."

This is good news for both parents and the medical community.
