If there is emotional distress lasting more than 2 weeks after childbirth, postnatal depression may be experienced.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Does_premature_birth_increase_the_risk_of_postnatal_depression\"><\/span><b>Does premature birth increase the risk of postnatal depression?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Postnatal depression can manifest as excessive crying, irritability, guilt, lack of interest in the baby, changes in eating and sleeping habits, difficulty concentrating, hopelessness, and thoughts of harming the baby or oneself.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Postnatal depression is a condition that causes serious distress and significantly reduces the quality of life for both the mother and the baby. Mothers may exhibit behaviours such as feeling incompetent or inadequate in coping with their babies, getting lost in deep thoughts, losing interest in usual activities, feeling worthless, and excessively worrying about the baby&#8217;s health. Especially, premature birth creates a risky situation for depression. Special support should be provided to both the premature baby and the mother in case of premature birth.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the case of the postnatal depression, it is essential for the mother to feel adequate family support. Partners, especially, need to support their spouses intensively and actively participate in the process.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Some research suggests that 50% of women experience depression after childbirth.
