Dear Mam Antidepressant which is quite safe and can be used safely while breastfeeding. Postpartum depression not only causes your distress but can also affect the way you care for your baby and the bonding. It is highly recommended that you treat postpartum depression not only for your sake but also for the wellbeing of your child. A happy mother makes a happy baby. Please do not stop or alter the medication. If you have any concerns please discuss in detail with your psychiatrist. Thanks.

Hello friend, good that you are seeking a help here. I can understand your suitation and worry due to medicine intake. If you observe and notice, the reason behind your postpartum syndrome are mainly due to your overwhelming or worrying thought due to additional responsibility, restriction in foods, lifestyle, compromise on careers interests, lack of support from family etc. So it's all about how you keep your thoughts under control or manage or cope. Be positive. Take a counseling help to first understand the ways to handle your suitation better and there by control such anxious thoughts. Feel free reach me online or through Lybrate chat for further evaluation of your both physical and mental symptoms to recommend suitable solution. Be positive. You will be alright soon.
