Background: Perinatal mental health problems, such as anxiety, stress, and depression, warrant particularly close monitoring and intervention, but they are often unaddressed in both obstetric and psychiatric clinics, with limited accessibility and treatment resources. Mobile health interventions may provide an effective and more accessible solution for addressing perinatal mental health. Development and evaluation of a mobile mental health intervention specifically for pregnant women are warranted.

Background: Gestational diabetes mellitus is a common condition known to be associated with pregnancy complications, larger fetus size and depression, and may therefore lead to increased concerns linked to childbirth. We sought to determine whether gestational diabetes mellitus is linked to fear of childbirth, and whether the possible association is mediated by depressive symptoms.
Methods: This study includes women who gave birth at the Kuopio University Hospital between 2019-2022 and had reported their level of fear of childbirth after gestational week 28 (n = 3293).

Growing evidence has indicated a potential association between maternal consumption of caffeine and impaired cognition and behavior in rodent offspring. However, potential sex differences, as well as caffeine-related effects in subsequent generations are still poorly investigated. We aimed to investigate the impact of pre-and/or neonatal exposition to caffeine on the neurodevelopment of male and female mice offspring.
