Babies and mother's perinatal mood disorders.

The absolute worst thing about a perinatal mood problem is the worry that the way that you are feeling may be having an adverse effect on your baby. It is bad enough feeling bad yourself without having to think that this may have affected your new defenceless and very special baby. Babies are unique individuals in their own right from the moment of birth, and although they change enormously as they develop, they are born with their own temprements. Some babies are naturally resilient and find ways to self-soothe andand to survive this difficult period, other babies are quite sensitive to the difficulties that mothers experience.
