Perinatal depression refers to major and minor episodes during pregnancy the first 12 months after childbirth. Perinatal depression is a big public health problem. It affects women in most countries of the world, but it is women in developing countries who bear the greatest burden. Prenatal depression has a low detection rate and many women remain underdiagnosed. Depression during pregnancy has a negative impact on the course of pregnancy, fetal and neonatal outcomes. These include premature birth with growth restriction and low birth weight, small for gestational age. Studies have also shown that children born to depressed mothers are more likely to have behavioral problems and / or impaired cognitive and emotional development
