Find out about the MOTHERS Act. See side effects of psych drugs on pregnant women at http://www.cchrint.org/psychdrugdangers. This is the story of a mother who took antidepressant while pregnant, and was never warned of the risks or the fact that thousands of reports of infant deaths and birth defects have been reported to the FDA for pregnant and nursing mothers taking psychiatric drugs.

  • Living in a free country DOES NOT mean that Mothers and Children can be exposed to unnecessary drugs . It DOES NOT mean that giant pharmaceutical companies can be insulated from lawsuits when their profit making mechanism (drugs) rob parents of their children.

    Living in a free country depends entirely on how informed its public is and whether or not they will hold public officials and private chieftans accountable.

    We DO NOT Live in a free country.

  • Legislation such as the Mother's Act is not written out of concern for health or safety but IS written to increase the profits of the drug pushing pharmaceutical companies. More effort should be put into providing young mothers with proper nutrition. Paul Turner

  • I am in floods of tears, I recently found out i am pregnant & i'm currently on citalopram. After seeing this i am going to inform my doctor i wish to be weaned off them. This sort of tragedy is horrible. I feel so much sorrow for Christian and her family for going through this. R.I.P little Indiana <3

  • i would be suing or however you spell it get justice

  • I Think it is pretty hard to keep ppl who are suffering from severe depression informed. It is like walking in a cloud of gloom and doom, and they are very easy to take advantage of.

  • Firstly, thank you for sharing this.

    Just letting you know... the psychdrugdangers link isn't working (I think) because the "." (i.e. fullstop) is included. When I deleted it from the URL it worked.

    Finally, thank you, again.

  • Read the drug literature word for word and with your pharmacist - not your doctor. The doctors are not as versed in pharmacology as the pharmacists are. God bless this family! I am so very sorry for their loss. I suffer from depression and have two daughters - I took no medication through my pregnancies - I had a feeling. With the birth of my second daughter my pp depression was so bad my doctor wanted me to take my medication again AND breast feed - I didn't - I read the PDR word for word.

  • They're trying to kill off all of our indigo//crystal//and rainbow children, but they will never succeed... we're here and we're putting up a fight! This is our planet, and we will not accept the way big business is violating human rights and the lowest set of morals one can have. Never will we accept an inheritance of war, death, disease, and famine. Get ready for the tables to turn...

  • @thinkingman07 you are 1000 percent correct in another way also of course this country was bought and paid for a long long time ago and just recently was sold to the highest fucking bidder by the stupidest men alive

  • @thinkingman07 thats very true

  • @thinkingman07 We do live in a free country, there are tons of alternatives to pharmaceuticals.
