There
are no signs of an increase in depressions
during pregnancy. But quite a lot
of women experience insecurity and
emotional instability in connection
with their pregnancy. In a few cases,
fathers can feel the same just before
or after the birth.
Between
20% and 40% of all women feel emotionally
unbalanced after giving birth. When
you have just given birth, both your
body and psyche need to get used to
a completely new situation. You can
become touchy and very tearful. You
might feel very sad or unhappy, and
perhaps you are missing the support
and help from those closest to you.
These
feelings often last a few days. But
in approximately one in every ten
women these feelings can develop into
actual depressions, which have to
be treated. If you are depressed,
you find it difficult to look after
your newborn baby and develop a good
mother/child relationship from the
beginning. This might then cause you
to get a bad conscience, which in
turn can contribute to prolonging
the depression. It is therefore important
to get the treatment for postnatal
depression started quickly.
