Post-Partum Depression and Infant Crying Behaviour

Introduction Excessive infant crying can be troublesome for parents and health-care providers, even though for the most part, it is quite benign for the infant. However, in the context of post-partum depression (PPD), excessive crying behaviour may be problematic if it leads to a failure to elicit appropriate maternal responses. This may have substantial and lasting adverse consequences for development. Understanding the impact of infant crying in this setting and the implications for interventions that promote healthy child development services will be the focus of this article.
