Abstract

This article reviews the most recent evidence on maternal mental health in times of Covid-19. Six articles from different countries are reviewed, describing studies with samples of more than 200 people and reporting prevalence of anxiety and/or depression among mothers in the context of the current pandemic. In all the studies, an increase in the prevalence of anxiety and/or depression was recorded after the appearance of Covid-19. Finally, it is made a compilation of the main contributions proposed in the reviewed articles to reduce the negative consequences associated with increased anxiety and depression.
