Does Intake Of Depakote, Zyprexa And Theralite By Partner Have Any Side Effect On 6 Week Old Pregnancy ?

The medicine which your partner is taking will have no effect on your child's health. Its only if the mother takes medicines, fetus is at risk.
Its difficult to tell the percentage risk for your baby. Bipolar disorder frequently occurs within families. Family members of patients with bipolar disorder also have a higher than average incidence of other psychiatric problems which includes schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, anxiety disorders, ADHD, and major depression. Its a familial risk. Its however not one to one relationship and not 100%. Its just an observation that bipolar disorder occurs in families.
I don't think that you should undergo abortion. The risk will remain the same even in future. And with repeated abortion, chances of pregnancy might be reduced.
So, go ahead with your pregnancy.
Hope this answers your query.
Please get back of you need any further information
