i was not on meds. both preg were planned due to the meds i was taking. Both preg. AND nursing were just fine. it was after i stopped nursing that mood dropped.
dont feel badly about stopping nursing. first of all nursing even a little is great for kiddo, secondly you need to be well, to be a good mama.
i dont know your whole situation but dont rule out a second baby. my first baby i had hyperemesis and was on IV for 3.5 months. i never thought i could do it again. luckily my second i didnt have it.
but i could have because so much time elapsed between the two pregnancies.
also, because of the drop. course i'd been inhospital so much for my MI that i had no fears of it. so after first preg. and nursing when mood dropped so quickly i went into hosp to get on meds and get them working quickly.
second preg. same thing except i was more able to do outpatient. which means i was in hospital during day till 3:30 then home and i did it longer it was almost exactly one month that i was in there to straighten out meds and my mind.You just never know what a woman is capable of until you need to be. :)
Best wishes to you.
