Breastfeeding Baby on Drugs, are Psych Med Safe? Moms on Meds, Amy Philo & John Breeding

[Mystery207]

Great topic

[AlterEgoTrip]

odd thing is that even drinking while pregnant is considered a risk.. same with drinking & breast feeding.. how is this better? Breast feeding is what you want.. to do, its much better than the alternative however what I'm getting is that there is a conscious effort to test these drugs on the pregnant & nursing.. at the cost of their lives.

Breast feeding done is a definite preventive to post pregnancy "depression" as well as good nutrition.

while these deaths are tragic- not offering any secondary ideas or choices in this video instead guilting and shaming women who are already dealing with life threatening situation is shortsighted and dangerous. You would rather a woman breastfeed and keep her mental health than take her off her medications and risk harming herself or her baby is that what you're saying? you didn't' provide a caveat or any way to discern in this video.

[psychetruth]

@yogangel7 She was not trying to guilt or shame anyone, she learned the hard way by her own child becoming ill-- she's trying to help people. The ideal scene would be to get off of Psych drugs before you became pregnant or to never start them in the first place. (Dr. Breeding addresses this topic in several other videos.)

If someone is a risk to their child without drugs, they are probably a risk on them also. This video just says that drugs DO pass on to the baby through breast milk.

@psychetruth I'm all for both breastfeeding and being off of unnecessary medications.My concern is women who don't have knowledge themselves of how to achieve the desired effects to relieve their issues naturally just go off meds and not bolster the diet or have a natural doctor etc assist them.As there is a stigma in our culture for mental illness alot of time ppl dealing with this issue consider well meaning information as shaming, that's not intended but how it can be received.

[CorrinaLovesTruth]

@yogangel7 There are over 1300 psychetruth videos and at least 1000 of them offer alternative solutions to improving someone's physical and mental health. There are probably over 100 videos covering depression alone, many of which Dr. Breeding has done.

There are alternatives, you just have to search for them.

[yogangel7]

@CorrinaLovesTruth yes, I've been a subbie for a long time and have enjoyed them all. I hope ppl who need the information will delve in and get all kinds of ways to support their health.

How about not getting pregnant if you're on medication? Or, using birth control if you're on them?

[aquia80]

@LifeInNewJersey That's not the issue here. I can go on about the flaws in your logic, but I won't. Have you ever been pregnant? Some pregnant women have such a hormone overload and become depressed. The problem is that doctors are quick to prescribe anti-depressants when a patient is pregnant. Doctors claim they are safe to use during pregnancy and people trust their doctors to do what is best for their health. The same thing is happening with blood pressure medication.

@aquia80 Thanks for telling me what "the issue" is.

The $ystem views us as a market to be exploited. (period)

[brentpieczynski]

Baby killing for pleasure and profit through psychiatry with grief counseling as a follow-up. It is all about the money with the mental health profession.

[gratedrawur]

@brentpieczynski Agreed 100%

[slvclw]

What about pre labor? In the blood stream would that effect the babys development?

[ATXBeautyPhotography]

@slvclw yes, there are several class action lawsuits centered around antidepressants and birth defects. Effexor and Paxil have both been implicated to causes birth defects in particular. Effexor settled a class action lawsuit last year related to birth defects.
