It's been about three or four weeks now. It seems to be working too! No side effects. Doc says it's fine to BF while taking. But I'm still a bit nervous. DH says I'm a lot "better"...he describes me as more relaxed, which I guess is a good thing. Anyone else taking it? Here's a link if you're interested since I know there are others who take meds for depression. Lexapro -------------------- Rae SAHM to Wil (4) and Wesley (2) ~ Wife to Richard 10/20/01

That is the biggest step to take and after that it should look up from there. I know that I feel so much better after being on them. -------------------- Angela mommy of 3 year old twins
