    I was on lexapro with my son. My depression was bad. I’ve talked to my doctor at the time and the doctor gave me the pros outweigh the cons. My son is good. He has speech delay but he’s doing good catching up with speech. I didn’t have much support being on antidepressants. But I felt I needed to be responsible and present for my son and kids. They are all healthy and happy.

      Dont take any drugs while being pregnant be strong for the child. These women that say that they have been taking it and their one year old baby is okay doesnt have a clue. These drugs are very damaging even to an addult individual. The kid can have neural damage that can come to light later on in life. If it is pssd for example he or she will find out about it in puberty. You can start taking meds after the pregnacy if you wont be able to stand your depression. Give your child a chance to find hapiness in life.

    I really need to set up my phone to work with voice commands, and remember to open Word before I start driving. All my good ideas, and well worded lines come to me when I'm doing 70mph on the interstate somewhere between grass and sunshine. Can never remember this stuff when I stop, and when I'm home, I'm always busy or tired. Drinking has the same effect, but I rarely do it.

      She cant really tell if her baby is lucky. There can be damage that will start to show later on in life. Since ssris cause s3xual problems it is probable that children of mothers that take these meds can have pssd and will find out about it in puberty.
