These are just a handful of the reasons that depression and stress can emerge in a pregnancy. What many imagine to be as a happy time can actually feel like a private hell. A stressed pregnancy can have an impact on both mom and baby, and significantly increases the likelihood of postpartum depression. Before delivery is a valuable time to explore the mix of feelings that have emerged, to give them words, and a place to be acknowledged and known. Therapy can help create strategies for optimal mental health during pregnancy, and can help formulate plans for care after delivery.
