Nursing Role in Preventing Postpartum Depression Among Mothers with High-Risk Pregnancies
Keywords:
Nursing role, Prevention, Postpartum depression, High risk pregnancyAbstract
Postpartum depression is an abnormal mood disorder that often occurs within 6 to 8 weeks after childbirth. Mothers experiencing this condition typically exhibit feelings of sadness, desolation, reduced happiness, or decreased enjoyment in activities compared to their state before childbirth. They may also have limited interaction with their newborns and families, and this affects the overall well-being of both the mother and the infant. High-risk pregnancies can lead to elevated levels of anxiety and stress, increasing the likelihood of developing postpartum depression. Therefore, nurses and midwives play a crucial role in preventing the risk of postpartum depression. This role includes assessing both physical and mental well-being, providing education about postpartum depression, offering counseling, and closely monitoring for any unusual symptoms. For this reason, nurses and midwives should be well-informed about the management of postpartum depression in high-risk pregnancies to prevent its occurrence or provide swift assistance in dealing with postpartum mental health.
