antidepressants and pregnancy study

The link is to an editorial about the study, and the quotation from that editorial.

http://ajp.psychiatryonline.org/cgi/content/full/166/5/512

"From the evidence available to date, the risks of an untreated maternal depression are far greater than the risks of serious adverse sequelae from antidepressant medication."

The full-text for the study itself, entitled "Major depression and antidepressant treatment: impact on pregnancy and neonatal outcomes" is available at the first link in the references.

During my third pregnancy anxiety disorder and took valium. Also the docs prescribed two glasses of red wine at night and placdyl two pills. She is fine today no anxiety or depression. Thankfully Phillipa ps they didn't have SSRI's then either. Seems anxiety was anxiety and that was it.
