Post Natal Depression

Post natal depression occurs in 10 - 15% of women within a year of giving birth and have a one in five increase of being depressed after the next birth. Some females usually within 4 days of giving birth will feel ‘down’ and maybe tearful for a few days which is ‘normal’. However, some women continue to be unhappy, emotional, anxious about her baby, feelings of the inability to cope, feeling inadequate and may even feel guilty, perceiving herself to be a poor mother. Insomnia or waking during the night if there is no need, causes tiredness and lethargy through the daytime. Negative and poorly perceived thoughts create an increased depressive period that continues, for months and sometimes even for a year or more. Brief clinical hypnotherapy via a cognitive approach allows the depressed female to think and feel differently, looking forward to her joys of family life and living.

Ante-Natal Depression

Brief therapy to reduce and control depression prior to labour is all important, especially for those that were depressed before becoming pregnant. Therapy significantly reduces the chances of post natal or post partum depression. (See footnote)

Reporting in the American Journal of Psychiatry 2002, the researchers found that exposure to SSRIs during pregnancy was associated with a twofold increase in premature delivery and consequent lower birth weight. Furthermore, SSRI exposure during the last three months of pregnancy was associated with lower scores on physical health of a newborn infant.
