“…Several studies in China, Japan, Turkey, Pakistan, Qatar, US and Canada have reported that 15% up to 35% of women scored high EPDS scores (above 12-13) during pregnancy and early postpartum period because of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic (2,6,7,14,(29)(30)(31)(32)(33)(34)(35). A Canadian study also showed higher levels of depressive and anxiety symptoms, dissociative symptoms, symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder, negative affectivity and less positive affectivity in a COVID-19 cohort compared to a pre-COVID-19 cohort of pregnant women (36). Analyzing the comments from pregnant women in the Mom2B cohort, it is noteworthy that most women reported less access to healthcare facilities, less satisfaction about the quality of healthcare delivery, as well as less support during pregnancy; in general, most emotions and experiences were negative.…”

Public health emergencies such as the coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic have significant impact on mental health, and have been shown to impact on already prevalent affective disorders during and after pregnancy. The aim of this study was to utilize modern tools to assess depressive and anxiety symptoms, as well as wellbeing and life changes in pregnant women during the pandemic in Sweden, where no lockdown has been in place.Data from the Mom2B, a national ongoing mobile application-based study of pregnant and newly-delivered women were utilized. Participants (n= 1345) filled out self-report screeners of depression, anxiety and wellbeing. Questions about COVID symptoms and effects on life and health care were added from March 2020. Movement data was collected using the phone’s GPS sensor. Mood scores were compared with throughout the months of 2020 and to the levels of a previous collected material. Highest levels of depression and anxiety were evident in April and October 2020. Symptoms were higher among those feeling socially isolated, but not for those infected or with symptomatic family members. Wellbeing and mobility were strongly positively correlated and were lowest in April. Women reported on cancelled healthcare appointments and worry about their partners being absent from the delivery.The Mom2B application enabled gathering information at a national level in real-time as the pandemic has been evolving. Levels of perinatal affective symptoms and low wellbeing were elevated compared with previous years as well as with months with fewer cases of SARS-Cov-2. Similar applications can help healthcare providers and governmental bodies to in real time monitor high-risk groups during crises, as well as to adjust measures and the support offered.FundingThis project was funded by the Uppsala Region to AS, the Swedish Association of Local Authorities and Regions (SKR) to the department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Akademiska University Hospital, the Swedish Research Council (Grant number 2020-01965) to AS, as well as the Fredrik and Inger Thuring’s Foundation to EF.

“…The COVID-Related Experience Questionnaire–Pregnancy version (Berthelot, Lemieux, Drouin-Maziade, et al, 2020) was developed for the purpose of the present study. It includes 14 straightforward questions pertaining to COVID-related distress specifically in the context of pregnancy or childbirth (e.g., “I fear being infected with COVID-19 in the context of pregnancy-related care and services,” “I am anxious that my child will get COVID-19”).…”

The COVID-19 pandemic has been associated with a global increase in psychological distress in pregnant women. This study evaluated the effects of STEP-COVID, a six-session mentalization-based prenatal group program offered online during the COVID-19 pandemic. The 100 participants were allocated to STEP-COVID or to the natural trajectory of prenatal care. Pre- and post-intervention assessments included measures of psychological distress, post-traumatic symptoms and positive affectivity. Perception of change during pregnancy on resilience-promoting factors was also assessed at post-intervention. A significant decrease in psychological distress and post-traumatic symptoms and an increase in positive affectivity were observed in participants in the intervention condition, whereas only post-traumatic symptoms improved in the control condition. Women who participated in STEP-COVID also reported greater changes during pregnancy on resilience-promoting factors than women in the control condition. Results hold promise for buffering the effect of the pandemic on the mental health of pregnant women using brief online interventions. Clinical trial registration: NCT05419167 (15/06/2022)
