Depression during pregnancy can disturb not only the mformer(a) but the unborn child and other children. Caring for women who are depressed during pregnancy is in many value different from other types of caring. Caring in this situation is demanding and truly involves the invention to care. The women are diverse but most of them live in poverty, without well-disposed support, and many do not want the child (Sable & Washington, 2007). The nursing routine is best summarized as a moral ideal because of the level of acceptation needed by nurses. In terms of interventions, the women need to learn header strategies to deal with stress but the most prominent need is genial support. This paper will explore these three areas of nursing role, interventions, and care a s they apply to the pregnant mother who is experiencing depression.

BackgroundDepression is normal among pregnant women and about 13 percent of these women experience changes in their genial state and functioning (Buck, 2009). While postpartum depression is even much common than depression during pregnancy, the rate of suicide is the same during the final sixsome weeks of pregnancy as it is during the 12 weeks after delivery (Buck).
