Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Perinatal health refers to the health of mothers who are pregnant, giving birth, and raising babies up to one year of age. It is also directly related to the people around the mother and the baby and the organization of appropriate help in case of need. Good emotional well-being in both the mother and the baby is essential for the formation of attachment and good psychosocial development and serves as the primary basis for human mental health. If left untreated and underestimated, perinatal mental health issues can have severe effects on the mother, the baby, the family, and society. Pregnancy, childbirth, and adapting to changes while raising a baby make women more vulnerable and can provoke mental health problems comprising a wide range of conditions, especially in cases where psychosocial difficulties and mental health disorders are encountered, at which point women and their babies need complex and systematic help. These issues are very relevant, but there are differences in how they are researched and their aid is organized in different countries. This Special Issue invites papers (reviews, systemic and meta-analyses, original research papers, etc.) on these topics and will provide an opportunity for scholarly discussion and development in this area.
