Hi, I'm on 20mg per day of fluoxetine for post natal depression. Two previous times i took this I was pregnant and any side effects were written off as pregnancy symptoms. I am 7 1/2 weeks in and feel as sick as at the start. I have no appetite, diarrhoea every morning, have nausea most of the day and am at my wits end with two kids to look after. My CPN insists as it worked previously and settled down that I need to continue with this SSRI. Has anyone else had these problems and switched to another SSRI that had fewer or less strong side effects??
I have barely slept for weeks and am getting very desperate despite some amazing family support. Thanks.
