Thought I'd up my fluoxetine journey at nearly 8wks taken for anxiety and antenatal depression which just come on from no where (had pnd 5yrs ago)
I saw improvements after 9days
Side effects where not too good from 2-6weeks.
At 7 weeks I was getting better but I still have:
A dream/dazed feeling which I find the worse part! I had this before meds too at a higher level.
Can't sleep at all.
Night sweats.
Headaches but less often.
Dry mouth.
Mood is better I can handle the illness with out crying and giving in but its still not nice been dazed all day but unable to sleep. my baby is been born by section this Tuesday ( 3days away) so hoping I'll feel better after this.
Hope everyone is feeling better x
hiya Rachel,
wow baby is'nt far away now! do'nt call her David will you because she will grow up with a complex haha 
This side effect thing is really soul destroying at times is'nt it? I had two pretty good days then today my head is in that dreamy dazed place again for whatever reason, this morning I found myself stood in a room totally confused as to why I was there, I stood a couple of minutes before snapping back to reality. My headaches are less often thank god as I had them relentlessly day in day out at one stage. I have'nt got your sleep problem, quite the opposite, I could sleep just about anytime! Do hope that things turn out well after babies born Rachel and you feel better, best wishes (((hug))) David x
Ow I get the confused where am I what was I doing. I think my brain is giving off energy but my body is worn out. I could feel like this due to pregnancy I suppose. Its this dazed feeling that needs to bugger off. Sounds like ur really improving now though David!
Your time scale and symptoms are almost identical to my daughters. She started to improve from day 9, and not sleeping and sweats have been the worst thing along with the shakes. Only thing she hasn't had is the fuzzy head.
Oooooo won't be long now before baby arrives for a cuddle, I hope they explained the spinal/epidural , if your having it, can make your teeth chatter, that's normal, and it isn't the flu tablets doing it.
Keep smiling sweetheart, your lovely journey is just beginning. Xx
Thank you Karen 
glad ur daughter is doing well. I believe I'll be having a spinal. I'm nerves but excited xx
Your sleep pattern should get better, it could just be because of the pregnancy. Same for the dream/dazed effect ....... all the side effects wore off for me. Sleep like a log now.
Come to think of it I do get night sweats ....... strangely wakes me up the same time about 4am every morning for about 5 mins. Thought it was my age ...... yay oh yay maybe it's not then!
Can't wait to hear about the new baby :-)
Hi rachel
Hope youve managed to get some sleep and that your good mood has continued?
You must be getting excited for tomorrow now, just wanted to wish you all the best for your new arrival! With a bit of luck some of the symptoms/side effects will get better after the birth too, ill keep my fingers crossed for you.
Look forward to hearing the good news! Take care, will be thinking of you :-) big hugs xx

Thank u vix means a lot!!!
I'm doing OK just feel dazed still but it improves later on in the day and might just be lack of sleep (6 wees a night lol)
I'm very excited yet nerves and feels serial. All packed and ready for 7am tomorrow.
Thank you for ur support and hope ur well xox
hey all the very best for tomorrow Rachel
Good luck for tomorrow! We're all waiting to hear xxx
I'll let u all know we can't decide on April or ava for her name, what do u ladies think xx
No way! Ava is my favourite name at the moment. I said only the other week if I had more children now they'd be Ava and Theo. Too old now though :-(
So my vote is Ava :-)
Looks like ava wins as most are saying ava first. So be ava louise. Just thought April was a pretty flowery name x
Both are lovely but loving ava louise :-)
You decided against calling her "david" then....
;-)
Xx
Ps why cant I do proper smiley faces on my posts!!!????
Mine change on there own to real smilies. Thanks guys. I don't think she'll be too happy with david as a name but I have often worried she might end up been a boy x
Smiley face in done from the little box top right of each comment box. doesn't work by doing :-) After doing a proper smiley face though, I can't type any more, so always leave it til last
Wow that's a lovely 2 names together Ava Louise :-) April is pretty too, but prefer the other out of the 2.
Exciting times ahead! x
well I'll be damned, I did'nt realise these wee faces were up in that corner!! I can do a smiley and a sad on my keyboard 
Nope on my phone symbols are there before I go to write post then disappear when comment box comes up. Will have to make do with these :-) ;-) :-D :-( :'( :O
Haha x
