A member asked:

Hi i'm baiboler and have the baby blues what can i take, my baby are 27 days old and i'm breastfeeding?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Call OB/gyn: Please be in touch with you ob/gyn and they will be able to make specific recommendations or refer you to some one who can. If you are not taking Essential Fatty Acids then 3000mg of Fish oil (Nordic naturals is a good grand) would be good to get on.
