Abstract
PURPOSE: This study was conducted to investigate the relationship between pre-pregnancy premenstrual syndrome (PMS) history with postpartum depression and mother-infant bonding. DESIGN AND METHODS: The sample of this descriptive and cross-sectional study included 322 mothers. Data were collected using the Premenstrual Syndrome Scale (PMSS), Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS), and Brockington Postpartum Bonding Questionnaire (BPBQ). FINDINGS: There were positive statistically significant correlations between PMSS total and subscale scores and EPDS scores and BPBQ. In addition, there were statistically significant positive correlations between EPDS score scores and BPBQ. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING PRACTICE: Especially by achieving success in PMS management in the pre-pregnancy period, the risk of postpartum depression development can be prevented, and healthy development of mother-infant bonding can be achieved.
