Premature birth is a concern for women with antepartum depression (depression during pregnancy). Research shows that preterm birth is twice as likely to occur for women who suffer from depression during pregnancy. Studies have also found that antidepressants may cause premature birth. We need more research funding so that we can get a better idea of how to prevent premature birth among pregnant women who suffer from depression, whether they are taking meds or not taking them.
You can join in this event at Bloggers Uniteand at the March of Dimes site.
