[quote=Anonymous]I started taking anti-depressants after the birth of DD #1 due to PPD. I had never been on them before, but I was seriously depressed and anxious after the birth, and I've appreciated having them since then. My DD is almost a year, and I'm starting to think about the fact that we'd like to have another child someday. I'm not in a big hurry but also don't want to wait too long because of my age. I've heard that antidepressants during pregnancy are a risk for autism and other problems. Does anyone have any information about this? Has anyone gone through this? I'd like to stop taking the antidepressants prior to getting pregnant, but I'm not sure how far ahead I should do that and how good that would be for my health. Moreover, I'm terrified that I will end up with PPD again right after the birth and need to go back on them. Any advice? How do others handle this?[/quote]
