Lamotrigine + floxetine

Hi, so I need some advice!

I've been taking lamotrigine for 3 years and it's balanced my moods, so when I found out I was pregnant they kept me on it + 5mg folic acid. I'm 23 weeks this week and my DD is developing fine and perfect weight.

Today they'd decided to start me on a dose of 10mg floxetine and next week up it to 20mg. Does anyone have any advice whether this would affect my baby?

I desprately want to breastfeed and now I'm terrified I can't, which is making me even more anxious/depressed. Do you think I would be able to on this medication? ConfusedSad
