Hi sweetie

You'd need to confirm with your GP but I know many ladies who have taken this durig TTC, Preg and breastfeeding (I took during breastfeeding) It has been tested and examined with human babies and find not to cause abnormalities or defects and so is deemed to be one of the better ones. The drugs line with breastfeeding support did extensive research into its use and effects and were satisfied.

I would say - talk to your team - not least becase if you're on medication already then your risk of suffering ante natal depression and or subsequent post natal depression are increased and its important that they are ready to support you if you need it.

Hope this helps and DUST your way x x x
