Received a call from a mom who is nursing a 1 year old maximum of 4 times per day. She had been suffering from severe post partum depression since the baby was born but has not taken any medications (except mini- pill progesterone only which increased her symptoms). The doctor will not put her on any medication unless she weans or can find info about one that is safe for her baby in her situation. She has heard that 300 mg of St. John's Wort 3 times a day has been used successfully in Europe for PPD. Any info to help her is greatly appreciated. TIA Marie Davis RN, IBCLC
