Hello again and tremendous thanks to all of you who responded to my recent
plea for help regarding pp anxiety and meds.  As you may recall, I started
taking ativan for the anxiety and was offered the option of taking Paxil
for depression which I declined initially.  I am weaning off the ativan
over the next 5 days. Simultaneously, the doc has recommended Trazadone for
depression and early morning awakenings.  Does anyone have any personal
experience or advice regarding this med and bf??  Baby is now 7 weeks old
and doing wonderfully well...after reading Dr. Hale's book, I wonder if I
am better off starting on the Paxil as it seems safer with bf or indeed
starting  Trazadone.  By the way, the Paxil dose would be 10 mg every
morning or the Trazadone would be 25 mg daily at bedtime.  I would be so
grateful for anyone's help or comments.  I am still NO MAIL so private
e.mail to <[log in to unmask]> would be appreciated!
THANK YOU!
