I Went Crazy

So this past month has been very difficult. Some family stuff, but mostly I just went crazy. I was taking Reglan to help boost my milk supply. One of the side effects is depression and anxiety. Well it sure is! I started crying all the time and getting getting anxious about being home alone with the babies. I couldn't figure out how to get the babies off the nursing pillow anymore-- I mean really, I'd been doing it for month! So after I made Stacey come home from work early one day she said, "Hey, maybe your meds are making you crazy." I stopped taking it right then and there. So now I am able to leave the house again, I can be alone again and I am not depressed about breastfeeding anymore.

So if you take Reglan for breastfeeding, just be really aware of your feelings. It snuck up on me all of a sudden and I had a miserable week and a half.

Now for the good stuff
