Husband's Role in Perinatal Depression during the New Normal Period of the Covid-19 Pandemic in Sewon Sub-District

of the community, which also lead to a perinatal mental health
problem. Perinatal depression is not only due to hormonal
fluctuations experienced by perinatal women, but also by the

perinatal women. This study aims to determine the relationship
between husband's participation and the incidence of perinatal
depression during the Covid-19 pandemic. This was an observational
analytical study with a cross sectional approach. The study
population involved perinatal women and their husbands in Sewon
Sub-District. Twenty-eight perinatal women lived in Sewon SubDistrict participated in this study. The samples of 0-1month

value was 17,754 (higher than X2 table of 5.591) with a p-value of
