dc.description.abstractThe purpose of this study was to examine the relationships among postpartum depression at 4 months of age, feeding practices and child growth at age 2 years. This study used data from 1881 mothers participating in the All Our Babies Study in Calgary. The mothers participated in five surveys between 24 weeks gestation and 2 years of child age. Multivariable regression analysis was done. Postpartum depression was negatively related to exclusive breastfeeding duration (β = -2.30 weeks, 95% CI: -4.39, -0.22). Postpartum depression and feeding practices were unrelated to child growth at age 2 years. We found mothers with postpartum depression at 4 months terminated exclusive breastfeeding earlier (2.3 weeks) than mothers without postpartum depression whose average exclusive breastfeeding duration was 20.2 weeks. The findings suggest a need for breastfeeding support for mothers with postpartum depression to sustain breastfeeding to the recommended duration.en_US
