Zoloft

I am currently 7 weeks PP with my 2nd baby. I've always had anxiety and some level of depression but I've always been able to manage. I spoke to my OBGYN about some of my symptoms and she prescribed me Zoloft. I'm worried about taking it while breastfeeding. Doctor said it would be fine, but I'm still worried. Does anyone have experience taking it and breastfeeding? If so, did you notice any difference in your baby? Anyone with experience, eventually coming off of Zoloft? Thank you in advance 🌻

I don’t take Zoloft but I do take Escitalopram whilst TTC, throughout pregnancy & now whilst I am EBF, at first I was so worried about the impacts antidepressants would have on baby but honestly trust your OBGYN they wouldn’t put your baby at risk. I just read up that SSRIs can just make babies a little sleepy (not been the case for mine though!🤣🤦🏽‍♀️) my baby is reviewed regularly & no concerns with SSRIs on his wellbeing. I hope this helps ease your mind, I know everyones experience is different but please do put your mental health first too, because a happy mum is so important xxx
