How do I know if it's the 'baby blues' or postpartum depression?

Is it safe to get therapy while breastfeeding or pregnant?
Talk therapy is completely safe during pregnancy and breastfeeding and is often the first-line treatment. If medication is considered, prescribers weigh well-studied options that are compatible with breastfeeding — a perinatal-trained therapist can coordinate that care.
