Several of this week’s articles look at the impact of maternal depression on the child. In the Journal of Pediatrics, Braungart-Rieker and colleagues explore how postpartum depression leads to parenting practices and behaviors which may make children more vulnerable to early onset obesity. In another study, Norwegian researchers observe that maternal depression during pregnancy and during the postpartum period independently affect the child’s social and emotional development.
