The clinical utility of maternal self-reported personal and familial psychiatric history in identifying women at risk for postpartum depressionPreview By: Dennis, Cindy-Lee; Ross, Lori E.. Acta Obstetricia & Gynecologica Scandinavica, Oct2006, Vol. 85 Issue 10, p1179-1185, 6p, 2 charts; DOI: 10.1080/00016340600697595; (AN 22541252)

This article was written about a longitudinal study about whether postpartum depression could be predicted if there was previous known psychiatric issues among relatives of the mother. They found that woman with family psychiatric issues were 4 times more likely to show symptoms of postpartum depression after 8 weeks of giving birth. It also talks about that psychiatric history is not one single cause in postpartum depression. It also can't 100% accurately predict whether or not a woman who gives birth will experience postpartum depression within the first 8 weeks after birth. I think this will be useful in my paper.
