"Does prenatal SSRI antidepressant use cause increased movements in the fetus that can be seen by ultrasound?" -Yes. At least 2 studies have shown ⬆️fetal movements & less quiescence: 1. First in 2011: nature.com/articles/npp20… 2. Most recently in 2024: nature.com/articles/s4138…

Important report from Maryanne Demasi, PhD on how a top figure at FDA refused the Covid vax while pregnant--even as FDA promoted it as "safe & effective" in pregnancy. She was concerned by a lack of safety data, particularly re: the biodistribution of the vax's lipid nanoparticles.

Thank you liz tucker for having me on your podcast to discuss medication use in pregnancy (including SSRI antidepressants.) Never in human history have we exposed pregnant women & developing babies to so many pharmaceuticals. The known & potential harms of this are concerning.

Important episode with Adam Urato, MD . Much watch for women of childbearing age on SSRI's and pregnant women taking SSRI's. You cannot consent unless you are informed.

Thank you The HighWire & Del Bigtree for covering SSRI antidepressants & pregnancy. Pregnant women deserve good, compassionate care - which includes accurate counseling about medications. The SSRIs carry risks for mom & baby. It's important that the public be informed.
