I took Prozac during my last pregnancy and my youngest son was born with autism. I don’t know if it’s related – now they are saying it might be. I checked into a lawsuit, but was so put off by the firm I called that I changed my mind about even looking into it.

We had actually thought it might be the vaccines, so we had been involved in that litigation for 10 years and then they said there was no link and then the whole SSRI thing started up.

We’ll never know, but I really wonder if I made a mistake taking that drug while I was pregnant. I can distinctly remember asking my husband what he would do (because I wasn’t even functioning) and he said he wouldn’t take it if it was him. So helpful. But he’s never blamed me for Joey’s autism, so I appreciate that.

I did have him two weeks before his due date and my other babies were late, so I wonder if that’s the reason he came early. Luckily, he was still considered full term.

I guess the question is, are you done and if not, would you take SSRI’s for your own mental health if you got pregnant again? It’s walking a really fine line, treating the mom to make sure she can take care of the babies and damaging the developing babies.
