✦ Synopsis

A self-selected sample of 31 Cambodian mothers in Australia were interviewed about their pre-migration experiences and about childbirth. There was a signi®cant relationship between the number of trauma events experienced prior to birth and psychological morbidity following birt`h. The Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale appears particularly sensitive to detecting postnatal distress in these women, while there appears to have been no signi®cant buer eect by the woman's social support network. While no causal model can be supported by this pilot study, there is a suggestion that traumatic events experienced prior to birth may indicate that the woman is at risk for emotional diculties postpartum.
