Anxiety meds and breast feeding

[Anonymous]

Has any one used anxiety meds while breast feeding a baby w/reflux or even have any information? I know that nothing is one hundred percent safe and that things can be passed through the breast milk, but the doc wouldn’t prescribe it if they didn’t think it was safe. Still I feel uncomfortable taking it. I had anxiety attacks right after my DD was born and they have been resurfacing this week, not as bad thankfully. I don’t want to make her feel worse. Any advise, stories, etc.?

my friend took zoloft I think it was?

http://www.kellymom.com is a great resource:

and there’s a book called something like ‘Hale’s’ that lists safe drugs while breastfeeding

LLL would know also…
