CleverMoms Coupons and Deals Forums: Doctor appointment on 9-22-08

I have been on Zoloft before, while breastfeeding but not while pregnant. I had an OB appointment yesterday and she decided to put me back on Zoloft since my depression is much worse since my mom died 3 weeks ago. She is putting me on 50mg but said I will need to wean off before the end of this pregnancy. I would hate to start it now just to wean off in a few months.

I really don't want to start on the Zoloft because I have bad dizzy spells coming off of it. She is sending me on Monday to talk to a therapist about losing ~Emma~ and my mom all within a years time. It's going to be hard for me to talk face to face with a therapist.

Does anyone know why I would have to get off of the medicine before I deliver?

I didn't even think to ask why at the time. She was getting on me for no weight gain, yet I did gain 2 pounds from my last appointment. But I'm still 8 pounds under my pre-pregnancy weight and I'm 7 months along. I do eat healthy, but with being depressed sometimes I have forgotten to eat lunch then Cassidy will start moving around then I will eat something. If I eat when I'm not hungry it makes me sick to my stomach.

Cassidy's heartbeat was 152 and she moves so much and I swear she's trying to poke her head out or something. She is measuring a week ahead. My blood pressure is fine and I had to drink that yucky stuff to check for Gestional Diabetes yesterday also.

Here's my belly photo from two days ago, 27 weeks 3 days...
