hi i am posting this on behalf of a friend, she is bfeeding her 7mth old, who is pretty much exclusively bfed, (doing BLW) and she has been suffering from quite bad pnd, feeling suicidal, unable to cope etc.
she has been backward and forwards to her gp who have been useless pretty much.
she went again today and they have said she MUST stop bfeeding and start taking citalopram and she is on the 'waiting list' to see a psychiatrist oh and she can have counselling if she pays for it....
she REALLY REALLY REALLY DOES NOT WANT TO STOP BFEEDING, is absolutely gutted, so i said i would ask here and see if this medication is ok with feeding or if there is an alternative, and get her some advice that she can take back to her gp.
so please help
