Product Description
Pregnancy and childbirth are a happy and joyous time for some women, but for others the experience can be one of anxiety, fear, and confusion. In this book, Dr. Misri offers specific advice on emotional issues ranging from the normal marital adjustments that come with parenthood to the more serious problems of depression.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must for any woman, spouse, family or friend suffering., August 18, 1999
By CReesman@aol.com (Virginia, USA) - See all my reviews
Dr. Misri does a great job of explaining depression as it relates to pregnancy and the postpatum period. She includes stories of women that she has counseled over the years. These stories help the reader to better understand the various forms that depression can take. I highly recommend this book to anyone who thinks they or someone they know may be suffering from depression related to a pregnancy, including miscarriages and still births.

1.0 out of 5 stars Why I gave only 1 star, October 30, 2004
By Just a "Mom" (San Diego) - See all my reviews
The book is of good quality for it's time. But it is VERY outdated. There have been numerous changes in the treatment of PPD since its publishing. I recommend something more current to get the best information.

5.0 out of 5 stars Only book I found that deals with Antepartum depression, April 18, 2004
By Janet Peck "jtpeck2" (Preston, WA United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I experienced severe depression in my first trimester, and I couldn't find anything at all that dealt with the topic. I wanted to be excited about the pregnancy but felt totally disconnected. This book - as well as an outpatient psychiatric program through the hospital where I delivered - helped me deal with my depression and my pregnancy.
