Dr. Dunnewold shares if a woman is more likely to have PPD/Postpartum Depression if she has suffered from clinic depression in the past.

Dr. Dunnewold:
Yes, women who have a previous history of either depression or anxiety, even if it wasn’t at a clinical level. If you got a little depressed when you broke up with the boyfriend at college or if you’ve always been a worrier, you are definitely more at risk for postpartum depression or anxiety.
