sion and anxiety that can affect the fetus.

“One of the things this research highlights is that if you are pregnant and under extreme amounts of stress or feeling depressed, you should talk with your doctor about ways of treating these conditions during pregnancy,” Diego said.

Larry Gray, a pediatrician at the University of Chicago Comer Children’s Hospital, said that Diego and his colleagues are at the frontier of trying to understand how a mother’s mental health, or state of mind, affects her baby. Gray was not involved with the study.

“I think this is a great study,” Gray said. “This association has been known clinically, but this is the first study where one has looked at a mother’s altered cortisol patterns before birth and how that affects the baby before it is born.”
