Depressive symptoms during the perinatal period by disability status: Findings from the United States Pregnancy Risk Assessment Monitoring System

Jeanne L. Alhusen et al.

Summary: This study aimed to compare the prevalence of depressive symptoms during the perinatal period between individuals with disabilities and those without disabilities. The results of the analysis of nationally representative data from 24 participating states in the United States between 2018 and 2020 showed that respondents with disabilities had a higher prevalence of depressive symptoms during pregnancy and the postpartum period compared to those without disabilities. This increased risk of depressive symptoms among individuals with disabilities during the perinatal period can have adverse effects on maternal, neonatal, and infant health outcomes.

Summary: Research showed that autistic participants may face sensory challenges during childbirth, highlighting the need for sensory adjustments and clear communication from healthcare professionals. Limited knowledge of autism among professionals could hinder the provision of appropriate adjustments. Both autistic and non-autistic participants reported parenting strengths and challenges, suggesting potential improvements in childbirth and postnatal healthcare for autistic individuals through sensory and communication adjustments, as well as increased autism-related training for professionals.

Erin E. Andrews et al.

Summary: Research on breastfeeding experiences of disabled women revealed unique challenges in communication with lactation consultants, milk supply and latch problems, intense pressure to breastfeed, and interactions with health care providers.
