Inledning: Att föda barn är något som kvinnor har gjort i urminnes tider och är vanligen förknippat med glädje och kärlek. Men ibland inträffar oförutsägbara händelser som lämnar de nyblivna föräldrarna med en känsla av att förlossningen upplevdes som traumatisk. Syfte: Syftet med denna litteraturöversikt var att beskriva kvinnornas psykiska ohälsa efter en förlossning samt hur detta kan påverka kvinnan och hennes partners framtida psykisk hälsa. Metod: Val av metod till denna studie var litteraturöversikt. Tio vetenskapliga artiklar söktes via de vetenskapliga databaserna PubMed och CINAHL för att svara på studiens syfte. Tematisk analys användes för att analysera artiklarna och de teman som skapades var perinatal PTSD, lågt socialt stöd och traumatisk förlossning. Resultat: Resultatet visade att en traumatisk förlossning var en riskfaktor för att drabbas av perinatal depression, ångest samt perinatal PTSD. Vidare var lågt socialt stöd från vårdgivare, historik av traumatiska händelser samt instrumentella förlossningar riskfaktorer för att de nyblivna föräldrarna skulle uppfatta förlossningen som traumatisk. Slutsats: En negativ eller traumatisk förlossningsupplevelse kan leda till att de nyblivna föräldrarna får psykisk ohälsa. Det finns ett behov av ökad förståelse kring traumatiska förlossningsupplevelser för att minska prevalensen av perinatal psykisk ohälsa. Resultaten i denna studie är viktigt då den skapar förståelse för kvinnan och hennes partners utsatthet vid en negativ eller traumatisk förlossning samt vilka skyddsfaktorer som mer fokus borde läggas på av hälso-och sjukvården. / Introduction: Giving birth is something that women have done for many years and is usually associated with joy and love.

Aim: The purpose of this literature review was to describe women's mental illness after childbirth and how this may affect the future mental health of the woman and her partner. Method: Choice of method for this study was literature review. Ten scientific articles were searched via the scientific databases PubMed and CINAHL to answer the purpose of the study. Thematic analysis was used to analyze the articles and the themes that were developed were perinatal PTSD, low social support and traumatic birth.Results: The results showed that a traumatic birth was a risk factor for suffering from perinatal depression, anxiety and perinatal PTSD. Furthermore, low social support from caregivers, history of traumatic events and instrumental births were risk factors for the new parents to perceive the birth as traumatic.Conclusion: A negative or traumatic birth experience can lead to that the new parents get mental illness. There is a need for increased understanding of risk factors correlated to traumatic birth experiences to reduce the prevalence of mental illness. The results of this study are important as it creates an understanding of the woman and her partner's vulnerability in the event of a negative or traumatic birth as well as which protective factors more focus should be placed on by the healthcare.joy and love.
