Things have been so rough latelyI know you can feel it tooI've been through this beforeBut this time I have youSometimes I feel so downI just want to run awayBut then I see you my angel& that's what makes me stayFrom growing in my tummyTo practicing to stand Time is going by so fastThis was definitely never the planI've been so tough on myselfBecause I believe you deserve the best
I try to be the perfect momBut on the inside I'm just a messSo bare with me baby girlI'm fighting this depression for youI'm still a little brokenBut I know I'll make it throughYour my strength my pride Everything that's good in meSomeday I hope I'll be ableTo see just what you seeBut until then I'll continue tryingTo make all your dreams come true& no matter what happensI'll always love you.

Epidemiology of MDD• Lifetime prevalence for the general population is
as high as 1 in 3, often begins in childhood or adolescence
• Lifetime prevalence in women postpartum: 13-26%
• Average length of episode: 3-6 months• Impairment: 87% report significant role
impairment (social, home, relationships, work)• Comorbidity: 71% (anxiety disorders, substance
use disorders)• Risk for subsequent episodes: 80%• Odds of relapse within 2 years: 50%• First episodes in postpartum period: 50%
![Page 9: Addressing Maternal Depression and Trauma in Home Visiting Robert T. Ammerman, Ph.D, ABPP Every Child Succeeds and Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56649de75503460f94ae0961/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Associated Features
• Nationally, 57% receive treatment. Only 64% get at least minimally adequate treatment.
• 20-30% of women depressed postpartum receive treatment, less among low income.
• Failure to successfully treat the first episode increases risk for subsequent episodes and increases likelihood of treatment resistant depression.
• Suicide risk: between 4-15%

Maternal Depression is Expensive
Mother• Employment• Education• Health care utilization• Lifetime earnings
Child• Preterm birth• Cognitive delays,
special education• Mental health
treatment• Injury and illness• Child abuse and
neglect
Maternal depression is a multigenerational issue.

Economic Costs• World Health Organization (2012)—Depression is
the leading cause of disability worldwide• Depression in adults costs $83.1 billion
annually, including 31% direct medical costs, 62% workplace costs (absenteeism, presenteeism and disability) and 7% for suicide/mortality costs
• Depressed employees miss 27.2 days of work per year
• Maternal depression is associated with an increase in pre-term births which average $51,600 per birth
• Family lifetime loss in income potential is $300,000 due to childhood onset of psychological problems
• Identification and effective treatment saves money and protects investments in other programs.

Biobehavioral Response to Trauma
-Genes contribute to how we respond to stress.-Genes can make us more vulnerable to traumatic stress.-Genes can be altered through exposure to traumatic stress, and these changes can be passed on to offspring.
-Traumatic stress alters how neurons connect with each other and how they work.
-Traumatic stress changes brain architecture. These changes can occur in the developing fetus and remain for a lifetime.

Key Features of Infant Social and Emotional Development
• Infants can imitate facial expressions and show preferences for caregivers.
• Infants have a need to seek out communication with others.
• Infants can elicit social and emotional responses from caregivers.
![Page 30: Addressing Maternal Depression and Trauma in Home Visiting Robert T. Ammerman, Ph.D, ABPP Every Child Succeeds and Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56649de75503460f94ae0961/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Key Features of Infant Social and Emotional Development
• Communication between mothers and infants is organized around face, voice, gesture, and gaze--“a dance”.
• Secure attachment is the cornerstone of early social and emotional development.
• Communication directly influences, and is influenced by, brain development and emerging physiological regulation.
![Page 31: Addressing Maternal Depression and Trauma in Home Visiting Robert T. Ammerman, Ph.D, ABPP Every Child Succeeds and Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56649de75503460f94ae0961/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Key Features of Infant Social and Emotional Development
• In normal mothers’ interactions with babies, 42% of time is spent exhibiting positive affect. For babies, 15% of time.
• Mothers “guide” the quality of the interaction and the direction of development. They provide the scaffolding needed for successful development.
![Page 32: Addressing Maternal Depression and Trauma in Home Visiting Robert T. Ammerman, Ph.D, ABPP Every Child Succeeds and Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56649de75503460f94ae0961/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Characteristics of Depressed Mothers
• Withdrawn: disengaged, flat, unresponsive, little support.
• Intrusive: rough, angry, interrupt• Unable to read cues.• Rejecting.• Imbalanced, discordant.
![Page 33: Addressing Maternal Depression and Trauma in Home Visiting Robert T. Ammerman, Ph.D, ABPP Every Child Succeeds and Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56649de75503460f94ae0961/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Characteristics of Depressed Mothers
• Don’t enjoy parenting.• View themselves as less competent and
ineffective.• View children as more difficult.• Less tolerant.• More likely to attribute inappropriate intent in
children.• See their behavior as caused by outside
influences.• Preoccupied, less attentive, don’t anticipate.• Slower and less effective problem-solvers.

Impact on Infants and Development
• Avoid mom, look away (for intrusive moms), docile, typically following maternal rejection.
• Fussy, cries, focus on self-regulation (for withdrawn moms).
• Crystallizing of communication patterns.• Delays in emotional regulation, and
physiological organization.• Attentional problems.

• Treatment capacity• Availability of evidence-based treatment• Access and disparities• Choice and engagement• Antidepressant medications: adherence,

Unique Opportunity in Home Visiting
• Reach mothers who might not otherwise receive treatment.
• Appeal to mothers’ interest in their baby’s development.
• Lower barriers to treatment.• Identify mothers early in the MDD episode.• Leverage relationship between mother and
home visitor.• Leverage ongoing and lengthy home
visitation services to optimize outcomes.
