Happy Holidays to all who celebrate.
I have a mom with a question.  She is breastfeeding her now 5 month  old son. 
 She is on Zoloft for postpartum depression.  She feels the  usual side 
effects of restlessness and insomnia.  Problem is, so does her  baby.  He is not 
sleeping well and seems unsettled even when he is  sleeping.  Her concern is not 
just that the Zoloft is causing this behavior  for him, but will it have long 
term effects.  I cannot find anything about  long term effects on the baby.  
I have found plenty of information about  the effects of depression on the 
baby.
 
Is there any information I can share with her to set her mind at ease, or  is 
really better for her to consider weaning?
 
Thanks,
