Emerald, I'm not a doctor, but I would suggest you re-think that Zoloft is baby-safe. Remember flamidimide? Who knows what they will discover down the road.
One of the reasons new moms get depression is because the pregnancy zaps the body of key nutrients for brain function and hormonal balance. The primary one would be omega 3 essential fats. If you aren't taking them I would strongly suggest looking into it. They will also help you with your fat loss because of the metabolic effect they have on the body.
Not only that, they will help your baby build neurological tissue (ie, feed the growing brain).
I believe EFAs used while pregnant and after could solve/prevent most postpartum depression. (Of course I'm not a doctor OK)
