Dina Fiasconaro's "Moms & Meds" gets high marks for courage and frankness about this delicate topic. She is able to draw out the most intimate fears and travails from a number of compelling interview subjects. Even more compelling is that Fiasconaro participates as a subject in her own documentary.

Medical experts weigh in on the difficulty therapists and physicians have in dealing with the combination of pregnancy and depression, and other disorders. For those that truly need medications, but are legitimately concerned about the possible effects of the meds on the unborn child, this doc will shed much needed and compassionate light on this most difficult dilemma.
