Conclusions of O'Hara's 2009 Review of Postpartum Depression
O'Hara's 2009 review concludes that maternal depression can affect the mother, her children, and the wider family. It describes an unresolved question: whether postpartum depression is specific to childbirth or represents major depressive disorder beginning around childbirth. The review associates postpartum major depression with high stress and poor social support and distinguishes postpartum psychosis by its focus on concerns about the infant and infant care.
