Pregnancy depression is a condition that occurs in about
10-20% of expectant mothers. Pregnancy period is a period that causes ups and
downs to emotions that bring joy, excitement and happiness as well as feelings
of fear and anxiety from time to time. For these reasons, and also with the
effect of hormonal changes in pregnancy, mood changes up to depression can be
seen in some of the expectant mothers. An older depression contributes to
pregnancy depression in situations such as family problems, medical problems
before and during pregnancy, and stress.

pay due attention to pregnancy follow-ups, medications and nutrition. Babies
born from mothers who experience this condition are less active than other

are more common in these babies. When you notice some of the symptoms listed
