Background and purpose: Ten to fifteen per cent of new mothers
suffer from postnatal depression. The purpose of this study is to
increase our understanding about how to use conversation to alleviate
these women’s suffering and help them to regain their health.
Method: The article is based on a literature study of articles and
publications gathered from the databases Medline and Cinahl.
The results are interpreted in a caring science perspective, more
specifically Katie Erikssons theories on health and suffering. The
methodology is based on Gadamer’s hermeneutic philosophy.
Results and conclusion: 1) The Edinburgh Postnatal Depression
Scale (EPDS) as starting point and tool for conversation; 2) Using
active listening and confirming skills; 3) Offer the woman opportunities
to talk about feelings and experiences.
Being conscious of one’s own ethos yields the public health nurse
courage and strength to relate to and confirm the women’s suffering
giving them time and space to suffer to gain reconciliation.
