Postpartum stress and depression have significant effects on postpartum women's health. In ad-dition, a lack of social support can affect women's health adversely. This woman is the most likely mother to be experiencing depression and economic stressors as well as a lack of support. While fatigue, loss of appetite, and insomnia may be reflective of depression, there are no indica-tions of the other high-risk factors. While this woman may be experiencing anxiety over being away from her career for 3 months, there is no indication of the other risk factors. While this mother may well be at risk for depression and possible financial stressors, there is no indication of a lack of support.
