Re: post partum depression

Hi guys. All this baby blues talk, I found this study out of the

UK, from a gyn who believes that estrogen patches help. I'm asking

my OB about this @ Friday's appt.

This will only help if you are formula-feeding. If you are

breasteeding, estrogen patches will reduce your ability to produce

milk dramatically. Excess intra-cellular estrogen is the reason that

so many morbidly obese women who do manage to get pregnant go on to

have trouble breastfeeding their babies, like I did. I had to move

heaven and earth, pumping the side Joanne wasn't nursing on and taking

two herbal supplements and one drug (domperidone) to produce enough

milk for my daughter.
