“…If fathers did not have a stable job, the risk of paternal depression increased (Ballard et al, 1994 ; Bronte‐Tinkew et al, 2007 ; Chung et al, 2011 ; Fentz et al, 2019 ; Nath et al, 2016 ; Nishigori et al, 2020 ; Nishimura & Ohashi, 2010 ; Roubinov et al, 2014 ). Studies have found that income and financial worries, such as living in a rented house, can contribute to perinatal depression in fathers (Abdollahi et al, 2021 ; Akiko et al, 2015 ; Bergström, 2013 ; Da Costa et al, 2017 ; Fentz et al, 2019 ; Jia et al, 2020 ; Nath et al, 2016 ; Nishigori et al, 2020 ; Philpott & Corcoran, 2018 ).…”

“…If the baby has a congenital disease or is hospitalized in the NICU, which increases the risk of depression in the father (Nishigori et al, 2020 ). In addition, the number of children is negatively correlated with the level of depression (Abdollahi et al, 2021 ; Jia et al, 2020 ; Massoudi et al, 2016 ; Ramchandani, Stein, et al, 2008 ; Roubinov et al, 2014 ).…”

Aim: Our aim is to clarify the concept of paternal perinatal depression including its definition, attributes, antecedents and consequences. Design: A concept analysis.Methods: To obtain relevant evidence, several databases were searched systematically including PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, CINAHL, PsycINFO and the Cochrane Library. Qualitative or quantitative articles published in English that focused on paternal perinatal depression were included. After the literature quality assessment, Walker and Avant's concept analysis strategy was used.Results: Five defining attributes (i.e. symptoms occur during the partner's pregnancy or 1-year postpartum and last at least 2 weeks, emotional symptoms, somatic symptoms, negative parenting behaviours and 'masked' symptoms), four antecedents (i.e. personal issues, pregnancy-related issues, infant-related issues, social issues) and three consequences (i.e. offspring outcomes, marital relationship, maternal negative emotions) were identified.

“…The cut-off score of the EPDS scale was set to 10 to indicate depressive signs [ 29 ]. A Chinese version of the EPDS was used (the Cronbach alpha ranged from 0.79 to 0.87) [ 30 , 31 ]. In this study, the Cronbach alpha was 0.85 (wife) and 0.83 (husband) respectively.…”

Background Post-partum depression (PPD) is a growing mental health concern worldwide. There is little evidence in the Chinese context of the relationship between paternal PPD and maternal PPD. Given the growing global concerns this relationship requires further exploration. Methods A survey was conducted with 950 total couples from March 2017 to December 2018. The study was conducted using a standardized questionnaire that included basic demographic information, information on the relationship between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, marital satisfaction (both maternal and paternal), and PPD symptoms. Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) analysis was used to explore the underlying mechanism for PPD symptoms in mothers and fathers. Results In 4.4% of the couples both the wife and the husband showed depressive symptoms. Maternal marital satisfaction showed a significant mediating effect on paternal PPD (B = -0.114, p < 0.01), and there was a direct effect of maternal PPD on paternal PPD (B = 0.31, p < 0.001). Conclusions This is the first study to investigate the possible correlation between maternal PPD, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationship satisfaction, maternal marital satisfaction, paternal marital satisfaction, and paternal PPD. It is important for future PPD interventions to target both maternal and paternal mental health, as well as the mechanisms identified that can lead to PPD.

“…Postpartum depression has clinical symptoms similar to those of generalized depression throughout a woman's life, but these symptoms begin physiologically during pregnancy and childbirth [20]. Numerous empirical studies have established a link between several risk factors and nutritional status [21], physical activity [21], sleep duration [22], and cigarette exposure [23].…”

Background: Extensive studies indicate that prenatal depression disrupts a woman's life and has a detrimental effect on the mother-child and further breastfeeding. Numerous factors associated with nutrition, physical activity, sleep patterns, and exposure to cigarette smoke are strongly suspected of contributing to the dysregulation of hormones associated with depression. This study aims to examine the association between physical activity, nutritional status, prior exposure to cigarette smoke, and the risk of prenatal depression. Method: A cross-sectional study was conducted on 79 pregnant women at the Pampang Primary Healthcare Center between January and March 2021. Using chi-square and multiple logistic regression, identify the risk factors that most significantly contribute to the risk of prenatal depression. Result: Married under the age of 19th (p<0.039), inactive daily exercise (p<0.023), inadequate sleep duration (p<0.045), and mothers who have been exposed to cigarette smoke for more than a year (p<0.001) all increased the risk of prenatal depression. Cigarette exposure, contributes most, with a 5.4-fold increased risk of developing mental disorders while breastfeeding. Conclusion: It is critical for health services to include early screening for prenatal depression during antenatal care as a means of preventing future breastfeeding difficulties, particularly in mothers with vulnerability.
