The overall goal of the BUMPP study is to improve our understanding of a range of moods, feelings, and thoughts that women can experience during pregnancy and soon after they give birth. This study will examine how these moods, feelings, and thoughts are related to changes in hormonal and immune health that women experience during and after pregnancy, and to mother-baby relationships and infant development in the early postpartum months.
