Gamble November 17, 2017 WWW.AMERICANPROGRESS.ORG Suffering in Silence Mood Disorders Among Pregnant and Postpartum Women of Color By Jamila Taylor and Christy M. Gamble November 17, 2017 Contents 1 Introduction and summary 3 Overview of maternal mental health 5 Addressing mental health during pregnancy and postpartum 10 Health care policy implications 12 Recommendations 14 Conclusion 15 Endnotes Introduction and summary Pregnancy and childbirth can bring joy and fulfllment to a woman’s life. Tey can also bring anxiety, depression, and stress. If lef untreated, postpartum depression and other mood disorders can grow severe and even fatal for both the mother and her child. Te American Psychological Association estimates that 1 in 7 women experience postpartum depression, yet the true statistic is unknown, as most women do not recognize the symptoms associated with the condition.1 According to the World Health Organization, pregnant and postpartum women experiencing severe forms of mental disorders may commit suicide.2 Perinatal mood disorders$including postpartum depression$can afect any woman, yet women of color ofen face life circumstances that increase their likelihood of experiencing perinatal mood disorders.3 Studies have shown that women of color experience postpartum depression at a rate of close to 38 percent compared with approximately 13 to 19 percent for all postpartum women.4 Te racial disparity is vast and mirrors major gaps in both screening and treatment for mood disorders among women. Tis report touches upon mood disorders for diferent groups of women of color, shedding particular light on the unique experiences of black pregnant and post- partum women facing mental health issues.

  • Maternal Postpartum Depression Screening
    BROOKLYN-USA.ORG BROOKLYN According to the United States Census, the number of children under the age of five living in Brooklyn is higher than the New York State average, and the size of households in Brooklyn surpasses the State average as well. To support these young families, Brooklyn Borough President Eric L. Adams launched Family Friendly Brooklyn. This initiative builds on previous work to support families through the Safe Sleep Brooklyn Campaign, which was a partner- ship with Delta Cribs. 400 cribs and play yards were distributed to families in need, along with informationI for all Brooklynites on life-saving safe sleep tips, such as placing a baby on their back to sleep, having them sleep in a crib, and not using blankets or quilts which could suffocate newborns; Studies show that these habits can decrease the likeli- hood of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS). BREASTFEEDING EMPOWERMENT ZONE (BFEZ) Borough President Eric L. Adams opened Borough Hall’s Lactation Lounge in May of 2015. It is a comfortable, acces- II sible, and clean space for mothers who are in Downtown Brooklyn to nurse or pump. The room has a hospital grade pump, recliners, a refrigerator for milk storage, and a changing table. The room is open for public use on business days during normal business hours. When new mothers go back to work, they are put in an untenable position of discontinuing breastfeeding if employers have not created a private space for them to express milk through pumping, which is mandated by federal law. Also, some mothers may find breastfeeding challenging when they are in public.
