For fathers-to-be: Mental health care during pregnancy and childbirth Pregnancy and childbirth is a special physiological period for women, maternal psychological problems have a great impact on maternal health, and attention should be paid to mental health care at all stages of pregnancy and childbirth. Tension, anxiety and depression are the most common psychological symptoms of women during pregnancy and childbirth. In the early stages of pregnancy, there is often nervousness and anxiety because of the concern about the normal development of the fetus; some people have more serious pregnancy reactions in the early stages of pregnancy, so they worry about their physical condition and may become depressed; some people may not be fully prepared psychologically because the pregnancy is caused by the failure of contraception, so they may want to have an abortion and worry about the impact on future pregnancies, and show anxiety. The pregnancy may be caused by the failure of contraception. As the pregnancy progresses smoothly in the second trimester, the tension, anxiety and depression tend to improve or disappear. However, in the late pregnancy, the anxiety and depression reappear due to the expectation and concern about the upcoming delivery, such as worrying about the pain of delivery, whether the newborn is normal and whether there are deformities, etc. Also, because some comorbidities or complications often occur in the late pregnancy, it increases the tension and anxiety of pregnant women. During labor and delivery, pregnant women are afraid of the pain of the delivery process and worried about the unfamiliar environment of the hospital and the attitude of the medical staff, thus creating fear and tension. During labor, the pain of contractions and the fear of danger to the mother and child increase the fear and tension, often leading to prolonged labor or obstructed labor. Postpartum depression is the most common mental disorder during pregnancy and childbirth, mainly manifested by aggravation, easy tears, emotional instability, anxiety, and in severe cases, headache, insomnia, lack of interest, lack of confidence, and even feelings of self-blame and self-guilt. The care and support of husband and family as well as the postpartum recuperation environment have a lot to do with the onset. Mental health care during pregnancy and childbirth: 1.
