Healio (11/1, Welsh) reports, “Maternal depressive symptom trajectories remained stable throughout pregnancy and up to 2 years after childbirth, which suggests focusing not only on postpartum depression but depression throughout pregnancy, researchers reported.” In the study published in JAMA Network Open, “researchers categorized all participants based on level of self-reported depressive symptoms as low, mild or high. All participants had stable depressive symptom trajectories from pregnancy to 2 years postpartum.”
