I have an article from 2002 (Hale) in which he states that

"Zoloft is the "best drug choice so far". It has a low, low transfer rate to
breastmilk (17-173 ug/liter) in mothers taking up to 150 mg/day. In one
excellent study of 11 mother/infant pairs, the zoloft was undetectable in 7
of the 11 breastfeeding infants' serum and minimal in the other infants. In
two other studies of one and three mother/infant pairs respectively, zoloft
was undetectable in the plasma of all 4 infants. A theoretical concern with
Zoloft is that some babies may not gain weight as rapidly or as well when
breastfed by moms on Zoloft; so weight gain should be monitored and dosage
tweaked as necessary. " There was also a good study at Mass General - I'll
try and dig it up.
