Susan Dowd Stone, current president of Postpartum Support International (PSI), was on the CBS Early Show this morning, educating the public about postpartum depression.

High-five to Susan for squeezing into this short segment the important point that screening and awareness of emotional wellness must begin during pregnancy - So many women experience extremes of anxiety and depression during the prenatal period, and too often it goes undiagnosed and untreated. These women are at greater risk for severe postpartum depression, as a result. In addition, it's crucial that mental health is on the radar screens of expectant moms (and their partners and families) before they are home with a newborn and find themselves in crisis.

Bravo, CBS. Bravo, PSI.
