AB  - Pregnancy  and  the  puerperium  are  at  times  sufficiently  stressful  to  provoke  mental  illness.  Such  illness  may  represent  recurrence  or  exacerbation  of  a  preexisting  psychiatric  disorder,  or  it  may  signal  the  onset  of  a  new  condition.  Especially  prevalent  in  pregnancy  and  the  puerperium  are  depressive  and  anxiety  disorders  (Kendig,  2017).  Many  of  these  disorders  are  associated  with  less  prenatal  care,  substance  use,  preterm  delivery,  and  other  poor  obstetrical  and  neonatal  outcomes.  In  affected  gravidas,  the  postpartum  psychiatric  illness  rate  also  is  higher  (Baer,  2016).  Last,  perinatal  mood  disorders  can  adversely  hinder  the  mother-child  relationship.
