Threshold for postnatal depression during the first COVID-19 lockdown was met by almost half (47.5%) of women with babies aged six months or younger. This was more than double average rates for Europe before the pandemic (23%), as per a study led by
UCL researchers, published in the journal
Frontiers in Psychology.
Feelings of isolation, exhaustion, worry, inadequacy, guilt, and increased stress were described by the women. Many reported their lost opportunities and for their baby, and were worried about the developmental impact of social isolation on their new little one.
