“…The interviews were mainly conducted in home environments, by an interviewer of similar ethnic background who was fluent in English, Urdu, Punjabi and Hindi. The facilitators and barriers to HAL identified were unique in important ways but shared commonalities with other studies in the general population, 25 31 32 in Indigenous communities, 31 33 in other specific ethnic groups, [34][35][36] in pregnant South Asian women 33 and in women with postgestational diabetes. 29 Negative 'barriers' to healthy eating were compensated for by facilitators that revolved around knowledge and awareness of healthy eating, cooking, meal preparation and consumption goal setting.…”

ObjectivesThe study objective was to understand the barriers and facilitators to healthy active living in South Asian families living in Canada.DesignSemi-structured interviews of 30–60-minute duration with South Asian women with young families, and analysed using a thematic analytical approach.SettingCommunity-dwelling South Asian women interviewed in the home environment or by phone.ParticipantsFifteen married South Asian women (mean age=34.2 years) living in the Peel region of Ontario, Canada, with at least 1 child under the age of 5 years. The majority of women had immigrated to Canada (13/15), during a 5–10-year interval preceding interviews.Results57 different codes were derived from 18 interview hours, and further evaluated through member checking. The top three barriers to healthy eating were: (1) not having enough time for healthy food preparation, (2) lack of knowledge about what is healthy eating and (3) viewing healthy eating as a matter of engaging in time limited dieting. These barriers were addressed with: (1) knowledge and awareness of healthy eating, (2) clear goal setting, (3) access to fresh vegetables and fruits and (4) better arrangements and more time for food preparation. The top five barriers to physical activity were: (1) not enough time and energy, (2) competing priorities, (3) lack of childcare, (4) lack of family-engaging exercise and (5) limited access to interesting exercise programming. These barriers were addressed by: (1) experiencing exercise as enjoyable and stress releasing, (2) commitments to walking exercise, (3) use of an electronic exercise-tracking device, (4) offspring exercise supported by spouse and family and (5) success stories about exercise from others.ConclusionsBarriers to healthy active living in South Asian women with young families can be addressed with facilitators that stimulate clear goal setting and healthy food preparation skills, and exercise formats that engage mothers and offspring, with or without exercise tracking.

“…These factors have an astonishing effect on mental health. Several countries with different cultures are affected by depression, a common psychiatric disorder [18][19][20]. Changes in women's hormone levels may lead to an increased chance of depression progression twice that of men, especially during the reproductive period and pregnancy [21].…”

‌Background Women are at a higher risk for depression progression, especially during pregnancy. The current study purposed to investigate depression, anxiety, and stress levels of pregnant mothers in the initial stage of the COVID-19 infection in the southwest of Iran. Methods This cross-sectional study was conducted during March and April, 2020, in Shiraz, Iran. Pregnant mothers registered in maternity clinics affiliated with Shiraz University of Medical Sciences were included. An online self-administered checklist was used. It included socio-demographic, obstetric and medical histories, and the short form of the Depression Anxiety Stress Scales (DASS-21) to evaluate depression, anxiety, and stress. A p-value < 0.05 was considered significant. Results In total, 540 pregnant mothers answered the questionnaire. 83.5% had no comorbidity. Abnormal depression scores were significantly higher in those who had no insurance (OR = 2.5) and in those with poor self-rated health (SRH) (OR = 27.8). Pregnant mothers with lower SRH and two or more comorbidities had a higher chance of having an abnormal level of anxiety subscale (6.9, 3.7 times, retrospectively). Conclusion The results revealed that an abnormal level of depression was associated with SRH and medical insurance status. Moreover, the number of comorbidities and poor SRH significantly increased the chance of achieving abnormal anxiety levels in pregnant mothers during the COVID-19 pandemic.
