im just back from a drs app,
she prescribed citalopram,and told me id have to stop BFing.
im so upset,i dont want to give up,its breaking my heart having to choose between feeling like this OR breastfeeding.
My DS is a milk monster,and fed on cue,he's 11 months old.
he would be so upset and confused if i suddenly started refusing him.
i asked if there was anything i could take whilst BFing and she just said that citalopram was what she used,and that she knew it worked.
she said i could half my dose to 10mg for the first week and feed him once in the morning and once in the evening,but after this week id 'just have to push him away'
i just cant do this to him.i dont know what to do.
please,help.
