Postpartum women who had mild postpartum depression range from 10/1000 live births and moderate/severe postpartum depression ranging from 30-200 /1000 live births. This study aims to analyze factors that influence the risk of postpartum depression in postpartum mothers. Research Methods: This research is a quantitative study with a cross-sectional design. The population in this study were postpartum women aged 2-6 weeks with 121 respondents, selected by two-stage Cluster sampling, followed by random sampling. The research was conducted at the primary health center in Central Jakarta area using the Edinburgh Postpartum Depression Scale (EPDS) questionnaire. It was found that mothers who had breastfeeding problems had a greater risk of developing postpartum depression (OR; 39.3), the greater the husband's support, the lower the risk of postpartum depression (OR; 0.13), and it was found that lower-income resulted in a greater risk of depression postpartum (OR; 14.7). In conclusion, the risk of post-partum depression is influenced by three factors: breastfeeding, husband support, and income. Of the three factors, the more dominant cause of postpartum depression risk is breastfeeding problems.

Peer support provides many positive impact either for postpartum or breastfeeding mothers. As a new mother, hopefully woman can breasfeeds their baby exclusively and maintain their mental health. All of this can be obtained through peer support. This study is to determine the benefits of peer support to increasing breast milk production and the mental health resilience.This study is a literature riview, by descriptive analysis. The study include 14 articles which were published in 2018-2022, through PubMed, Pro Quest and Google scholar websites. A total of 20,600 articles were found by emerging from keywords, 3,852 articles were selected after screening the title and abstract based on the research theme, 54 articles were selected based on the content and research objectives, until 13 articles that met the research criteria. Research shows the positive impact of peer support on exclusive breastfeeding and postpartum mental health, either offline or online can be effective

Breastfeeding and maternal mental health in the perinatal period are two important issues in public health. Breastfeeding is the most ideal way to feed babies and has positive short and long term impacts for both mothers and babies. Breastfeeding is a natural process, but many mothers experience problems and feel pressured by breastfeeding. Mothers who had high levels of anxiety and/or depression (high scores on psychometric tests that detect mental health disorders) before or during pregnancy or after delivery had more difficulties with breastfeeding than others. The aim of this study was to synthesize the results of current research on the relationship between perinatal mental health and breastfeeding outcomes. This study uses the literature review method. Literature searches used Pubmed, Tandfoline, Science Direct, and Google Scholar in 2018 – 2022. Articles were screened independently by researchers using the PRISMA method. Based on the 11 articles analyzed, it was shown that most of the longitudinal studies showed a relationship between perinatal mental health and breastfeeding outcomes. Other longitudinal studies also explain the existence of a two-way causality relationship between perinatal mental health and breastfeeding outcomes variables. Perinatal mental health influences practice and continuity of breastfeeding. Conversely, the practice and continuity of breastfeeding also affects the mental health of mothers after giving birth.

ABSTRAK Hasil studi menyatakan bahwa 24,5 % ibu menyusui mengadapi kendala dalam menyusui. Pandemi Covid-19 mengakibatkan akses pelayanan kesehatan esensial untuk ibu seperti konseling menyusui di rumah sakit, klinik maupun kunjungan rumah telah terganggu. DKI Jakarta memberlakukan Pembatasan Sosial Berskala Besar (PSBB) pada bulan Maret 2020 untuk menekan penularan Covid-19 dan pada bulan Mei 2020 melonggarkan PSBB menjadi PSBB transisi. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui pengalaman menyusui pada masa PSBB di DKI Jakarta. Desain penelitian menggunakan analitik komparatif observasional. Populasi penelitian ini adalah ibu melahirkan di bulan Maret - September 2020 yang berdomisili di DKI Jakarta. Jumlah sampel  sebanyak 70 orang dengan teknik quota sampling. Kuesioner  disebarkan pada bulan Mei – Juli 2021 melalui media sosial. Data dianalisis dengan uji Chi-Square dan Mann-Whitney menggunakan aplikasi SPSS 26. Tidak terdapat perbedaan antara masalah menyusui (p=0,471) ataupun dukungan pelayanan kesehatan (dukungan awal menyusui p=0,154; lingkungan pendukung menyusui p=0,788) pada masa PSBB ataupun PSBB transisi. Namun penggunaan dot (p=0,016), penyambung puting (p=0,025), dan pengetahuan tentang perah ASI (p=0,032) berpengaruh terhadap masalah menyusui. Pemahaman yang lebih baik tentang dampak pandemi Covid-19 akan menjadi panduan untuk mendukung ibu hamil dan ibu yang baru melahirkan dalam mempersiapkan dan menjalani masa menyusui. Kata Kunci: menyusui;masalah menyusui;dukungan pelayanan kesehatan;pandemi Covid-19 ABSTRACT Research proves that 24.5% of breastfeeding mothers experience breastfeeding problems. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, access to essential services such as breastfeeding counseling through hospitals, clinics, and home visits has been disrupted. DKI Jakarta implemented Large-Scale Social Restrictions (LSSR) in March 2020 to suppress the transmission of Covid-19 and in May 2020 relaxed LSSR into a transitional LSSR. Research objective is to find out the experience of breastfeeding during the PSBB period in DKI Jakarta. The research design was an observational comparative analytic. The population is mothers who gave birth in March - September 2020 and are domiciled in DKI Jakarta. The number of samples are 70 people with quota sampling technique. Questionnaires were distributed in May – July 2021 through social media. Data analysis with Chi-Square and Mann-Whitney tests through the SPSS 26. There was no difference between breastfeeding problems (p=0,471)  or healthcare support (early breastfeeding support p=0,154; enabling environment p=0,788) during the LSSR or transitional LSSR. However, the use of pacifiers (p=0,016), nipple shield (p=0,025) and knowledge about expressing breastmilk (p=0,032) affect breastfeeding problems. A better understanding of the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic will be a guide to support pregnant women and mothers who have just given birth in preparing and undergoing breastfeeding.  Keywords: breastfeeding;breastfeeding problem;healthcare support;Covid-19 pandemic
