HealthDay (2/28, Norton) reports, “First-time moms and new mothers of twins may be among those at greatest risk of postpartum depression symptoms,” researchers concluded in a survey study “based on responses from more than one million women in 138 countries who took an ‘after childbirth’ survey via smartphone app.” Of those women, “roughly 10% reported suffering depression symptoms since giving birth about 90 days prior to the survey.” The findings were published online ahead of print in the March issue of the Journal of Affective Disorders.
