Managing postpartum depression: New moms isolated by coronavirus pandemic

Postpartum depression is the result of a dynamic interplay between biological, psychological and social risk factors, all of which can be amplified by the current pandemic.

 Up to one in five women will develop postpartum depression, a condition that can adversely affect the thoughts, emotions and functioning of mothers, as well as the mental health of their partners and children. Adjusting to parenthood after delivery is challenging under normal circumstances, let alone in the midst of a global pandemic.

Online resources: Many physicians and other therapists are now providing telephone or online visits, and public health has made a number of their services available virtually. 

Prioritizing self-care: An awareness of some lifestyle changes that can help optimize the mental health of women with postpartum depression can also aid them in their recovery. 

Exercises: Time for exercise can be a challenge (particularly now), but since it can help with mood, energy and sleep, it’s worth prioritizing. Activities that are enjoyable, brief and easy-to-do (such as walking) are best.

Good sleep: Napping when the baby naps, dividing nighttime feeds 50/50 with partners and observing good sleep hygiene practices, such as maintaining a consistent bedtime routine and avoiding alcohol and caffeine in the evening, can be helpful.
