Depression/anxiety meds while breastfeeding

Lindsay9911

    I have a doctors appointment tomorrow to talk about getting on some type of depression/anxiety medication. I was on meds before I got pregnant with my first child and thankfully my pregnancy hormones evened some things out so I felt great my entire pregnancy! I am now 3 months pp and feeling depressed and anxious again.

    So I am curious if anyone has taken anything while breastfeeding and if so,what kind? It makes me nervous to think of the meds going to the baby, but I don't feel like I am doing my job as a mom as good as I could with medicine. I know my dr will be able to help but I would just like to hear from someone who may have dealt with this too!

 Any advice or experiences would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
