Diane:  Living in Oregon where we have rainy winters, there seems to be an
abundance of SAD, treated with Prozac, Effexor, Paxil, etc.  I have had many
a mom on Effexor without OBVIOUS negative effects.  In fact, these moms seem
to do quite well and have continued bf for long periods.  The literature is
somewhat vague and scanty, but I thought I'd give you some (actually, now
that I count, it's over 20 cases that I know of in my practice) of moms who
have used Effexor.
