Meds while BF
Hi after some help and space. I had terrible PNDA after my first baby, husband wasn’t on side with me taking meds, said he was too worried about side effects of sertraline on the baby. 6 months later depression was worse, talk of going to the mum and baby unit etc. very reluctantly I stopped BF so I could start meds. Now we’re talking about baby #2 and he is saying it would be the same deal with meds and risk to the baby, so if I got depression/anxiety while pregnant no meds and if I needed anything after baby is born I could only while not BF. Feeling so scared of the same experience but more so feel like I’m going crazy feeling like I want more support but then feeling like I’m being unfair because if I stopped BF I could have just taken the meds all along. While bf/pregnant I know we need to make healthy choices for baby, but does that not include healthy choices for ourselves too?

Soo, what are we doing with our babies?
Morning everyone! Just wondering what a typical day looks like for you? How often is your baby on a play mat or in a bouncer etc?
I'm not really sure what my wake windows should look like and how long she should spend in my arms or on her play mat etc Per wake window / day.

Car seat tantrums
Does anyone else’s 3 month old suddenly hate their car seat? He used to be fine in it but now every drive he is hysterical to the point of no consoling without stopping the car. Is it the car seat or just a phase?
