| A gynecologist is an MD! Some of you act like it's the equivalent of a plumber. For many women, a GYN is their only doctor. I am glad the doctor recognized the symptoms of depression and offered a suggestion. |
| Wrong. SSRIs like Zoloft Prozac Paxil etc are serious drugs that must be supervised by those experienced with working with them. Sometimes one ssri isnt a good fit and several more need to be tried. They have serious side effects mentioned (or I should say can have) and add jitteriness to the list. Plus can have uncomfortable withdrawal effects and discontinuation needs to be managed carefully. Is your wife concerned about the drug and breast-feeding? even one doctor say it's not a problem some people wisely don't trust what the doctor says. OP more about what the problem is I think the first step should be fine helping your wife find a therapist. try to get out and take walks as a family so she can get some exercise and try to be supportive and helpful around the house. you have no idea how exhausted she might feel if the babies waking at night. |
