“…Commonly, depression cooccurs with VE across age groups (Bauman & Summers, 2009;Kilpatrick et al, 2003;Records & Rice, 2007). Additionally significant relationships have been found between categories of VE including relationships between early childhood maltreatment, partner violence, and community violence (Dalla et al, 2010;Sumner, Wong, Dunkel-Schetter, Myers, & Rodriguez, 2012).…”

Depressive symptoms and violence exposure (VE) often cooccur and have been recognized to influence childbearing; contribution to repeat pregnancy is unclear and examined in this article. This cross-sectional, descriptive, study screened for depressive symptoms and VE among 193 adolescent mothers at a large county hospital in Southwestern United States. Repeat pregnancy and depressive symptoms characterized one-third and one-quarter of adolescents, respectively. Despite minimal disclosure of VE, repeat pregnancy was significantly influenced by child abuse and past traumatic life experiences. Assessments and interventions with adolescents should focus on frequency of repeat pregnancies and symptoms of depression and VE. Nurses and childbirth educators are poised to offer birth control information and education, support, and resources highlighting depression and VE to adolescents.

“…In many studies, a lack of social support emerged as a significant contributor to depression symptoms in abused women (Beydoun et al 2010;Cohen et al 2002;GomezBeloz et al 2009;Karaçam and Ançel 2009;Ludermir et al 2010;Records and Rice 2007;Valentine et al 2011). …”

The objective of this paper is to examine the association between maternal lifetime abuse and perinatal depressive symptoms. Papers included in this review were identified through electronic searches of the following databases: Pubmed Medline and Ovid, EMBASE, PsycINFO, and the Cochrane Library. Each database was searched from its start date through 1 September 2011. Keywords such as "postpartum," "perinatal," "prenatal," "depression," "violence," "child abuse," and "partner abuse" were included in the purview of MeSH terms. Studies that examined the association between maternal lifetime abuse and perinatal depression were included. A total of 545 studies were included in the initial screening. Forty-three articles met criteria for inclusion and were incorporated in this review. Quality of articles was evaluated with the Newcastle-Ottawa-Scale (NOS). This systematic review indicates a positive association between maternal lifetime abuse and depressive symptoms in the perinatal period.

“…[10] Apart from physical outcomes, psychological disorders such as prenatal and post-natal depression are strongly predictable within women who suffer from high levels of stress. [11][12][13][14] Seemingly, schizophrenia among male offspring is proposed and related to some maternal stress during pregnancy in literature. [8,15,16] Importantly, social support and quality of life are recognized as buffering factors that decrease both stress level and adverse effects of stress on either the mother and/or infant.…”

Background: Lack of appropriate social support and resultant increased maternal stress during pregnancy contributes to negative pregnancy outcomes for both mothers and the future offspring. Objective: The primary aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between social support and maternal stress during pregnancy. Methods: This descriptive-correlative study was conducted on 210 pregnant women who met inclusion criteria and attended Shahryar Social Security Hospital from August to December 2012. Participants were recruited through a purposive convenient sampling. Questionnaires about socio-economic status, the Vaux Social Support Record and pregnancy-specific stress were completed by participants. SPSS-19 and Lisrel 8.8 were used for data and path analysis. Results: There was a significant relationship between perceived social support and maternal stress (p < .05); however, support from family members and partners had the most affect. An emergent path model fitted (CF1 = 1, RMSEA = 0.00) and, accordingly, direct social support (t-value = 7.3) influenced maternal stress during pregnancy. But socio-economic status did not show significant impact. Conclusions: Since social support is a measurable and multi-dimensional factor, health managers and policy makers ought to assess, recognize and apply specific support resources for pregnant women. Our data also support the idea that empowering family members and partners to support pregnant women by involving them in prenatal care programs is important to reduce maternal stress rate.
