Perinatal distress was measured using the EPDS (scores of 10–12) and probable perinatal depression was measured using the EPDS (scores of 13 or more). Logistic regression models that adjusted for confounding variables were used to investigate a range of psychosocial and obstetric determinants and perinatal distress and depression. Results: Eight percent of this cohort experienced antenatal distress and about 5 % experienced postnatal distress. Approximately 6 % experienced probable antenatal depression and 3 % experienced probable postnatal depression. Being from a culturally and linguistically diverse background (AOR = 2.0, 95% CI 1.8–2.3, P< 0.001), a lack of partner support (AOR = 2.9, 95% CI 2.3–3.7) and a maternal history of childhood abuse (AOR = 1.9, 95% CI 1.6–2.3) were associated with antenatal distress. These associations were similar in women with probable antenatal depression. Women who scored 10 to12 on antenatal EPDS assessment had a 4.5 times higher odds (95% CI 3.4–5.9, P< 0.001) of experiencing probable postnatal depression compared with women scoring 9 or less. Conclusion: Antenatal distress is more common than antenatal depressive symptoms and postnatal distress or depression. Antenatal maternal distress was associated with probable postnatal depression. Scale properties of the EPDS allows risk-stratification of women in the antenatal period, and earlier intervention with preventively focused programs. Prevention of postnatal depression could address a growing burden of illness and long-term complications for mothers and their infants.]]> Wed 22 Mar 2023 18:26:16 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:54125 Tue 06 Feb 2024 11:28:55 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:37422 Thu 12 Nov 2020 18:13:49 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:37421 Thu 12 Nov 2020 18:06:55 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:30652 Mon 09 Oct 2023 14:51:03 AEDT ]]>
