PPD
Hey guys, my anxiety/depression has gotten so bad that I’ve decided meditation is best… my girl is 7months and I breast feed, I just started sertraline(Zoloft) and idk I feel guilty? Like what if it affects her? They say it’s the safest one to take.. is anyone else on medications?
There’s some reassuring info here specific to serrraline https://www.breastfeedingnetwork.org.uk/factsheet/antidepressants/. Slightly different but i have to take rescue medication for my migraines and i put it off for months for the same reason. I ended up in hospital dehydrated from the sickness. Ultimately it was more detrimental to my little one me being poorly than the potential (unlikely) side effects from the medication. It sounds like you are being very selfless and doing what is needed to be the best mum you can for little one x
