In the wake of the Yates retrial, the Houston Chronicle has published a good Q&A with a psychiatrist Stuart Yudofsky, M.D., chairman of the Menninger Department of Psychiatry at Baylor College of Medicine and chairman of psychiatry at The Methodist Hospital.

Yudofsky does an excellent job of characterizing, in lay language everyone can understand, the vast spectrum of mental health issues that can accompany pregnancy and childbirth - ranging from low-level stress and normal "baby blues" to the extremeley rare disorder of postpartum psychosis.
