Did you take antidepressants during pregnancy?

Question

I am in a horrible state of mind. I feel like it’s a crisis. However, I am so scared to take Zoloft. I am 29 weeks. Is your baby born and hit milestone if you took antidepressants?

Answer

Zoloft is completely safe during pregnancy

Answer

I was on 25mg of zoloft for my last pregnancy. Baby was a healthy boy. He's 2 now & doing just fine!

Answer

I took Zoloft with my first pregnancy. My son is perfect and has no developmental delays but Zoloft was not the correct medication for me. This pregnancy, the clinic I go to gave me the option of trying different supplements instead to boost my mood. I have found that a vitamin B-complex and an Omega-3 supplement daily have been helping reduce the depressive symptoms without the side effects I experienced with Zoloft. I am also on a high dose of vitamin D which I have been told can help, but I’ve been on that for a while because I just have low vitamin D. 
(I’m normally on a medication that is not safe for pregnancy or breastfeeding but obviously can’t take that right now).

Answer

I did take Zoloft with my first in my last trimester and never again. I won’t get into why because people will take it as a personal attack and I can’t be bothered for it. Especially because of the repercussion I personally dealt with. Others will tell you it worked for them and that’s great but just know that everyone can will react differently and just because things work great for some people they don’t for others.
