So I have post partum depression and anxiety. Idk what medication she gave me, I haven’t picked it up yet(I know I need to) but what I wanna know is. She put me on a birth control I can take and still breastfeed and it won’t affect my supply. Now has anyone been on anything for ppd and anxiety while breastfeeding? I feel like she wouldn’t give me something that I can’t take while breastfeeding considering we just had the conversation of what BC I should be on while BF. I’ve never taken medication for something like that before, I’ve never been through this and honestly I’m kind of scared....

I was breastfeeding and had PPD meds. It didn't affect my supply and the meds worked almost immediately. Like within a day. The medicine helped me be the mom i was meant to be. You wouldn't walk on a broken leg so why wouldn't you treat something that's just as detrimental? You are strong and brave for asking for help and managing it. Congratulations on your new baby and things do get better

You can ask the pharmacist. I've been on four different medications while breastfeeding and none have effected my supply and all were safe to take while bf.

I was given zoloft. I was told this was the most researched in terms of breastfeeding / pregnancy. Didn't affect my supply.

@mommyto3gremlins, that might be what she put me on then. But I wouldn’t know because my bf went to help his friends and hang out with them instead of coming home and helping me and he’s very well aware of what’s going on 🤷🏼♀️
