ABSTRACT
Pregnancy and birth of a baby can cause intense and unexpected feelings, both joy and sadness that affect women, the newborn, and the rest of the family. It is a period of adaptation, emotional and psychological changes that fortunately in most cases occur amid great enthusiasm and joy. The postpartum period is very important in the lives of women, especially if it is the first child as it is a big change in the life situation and the need for adaptation. Many new mothers experience postpartum depression, mood swings, irritability, crying spells or anxiety that usually disappear within 1 to 2 weeks. But about 15% of women will experience a depressive episode in the 3 months after delivery, called postpartum depression (after delivery). This article aims to review several different font bibliographies about postpartum depression, also called postnatal depression, which is a form of depression that occurs in the mother after the birth of his child. Knowing about this type of depression will help us improve the quality of women who suffer, as well as that of their children and partners.REFERENCES
