Thank you for posting this. I think people often get judgmental and assume that the mother is putting her needs above the needs of the child if she seeks medication to treat psychiatric distress during pregnancy. It's not true though. Baby's health and mom's health are intertwined.

I was reading some scary stuff about maternal depression (and anxiety?) during pregnancy leading to low birthweight and delayed development. I think this issue has been inadequately addressed in the medical and popular literature.

Thanks,
EE
