Abstract | The postpartum period covers a critical transitional time for a woman, which includes the changes in relationships between couples and within families. It is also commonly a cause of additional financial stress, even among households with relatively high incomes. Many stress-causing factors can lead to the development of postpartum depression. Hence this study was carried out to evaluate and assess maternal concerns, maternal morbidities, the prevalence of postpartum depression, and the effectiveness of counselling on overall maternal needs. A Cross-Sectional Descriptive Study was carried out among 150 postpartum women for 6 months. Data was obtained by conducting direct interviews with the subjects which were recorded in data collection form. Here, in this study, Maternal concerns were assessed by a self-prepared maternal concern assessment tool, and the prevalence of postpartum depression was assessed by EPDS. The goal of this study is to embrace imperfections, promote well-being, and provide a nurturing environment for new moms by assessing and determining various concerns faced by them in their postpartum journey and how counselling regarding postpartum concerns was found beneficial. |
