TALKING POINT

Ivanka Trump revealed in a television interview with Dr. Oz that she struggled with postpartum depression after the births of her three children. “I felt like I was not living up to my potential as a parent or as an entrepreneur and executive,” she said during the interview, which aired in full on Thursday.

About one in nine women experience postpartum depression, according to research from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Symptoms include anger and sadness, withdrawing from loved ones, feeling disconnected from your baby and worried you will hurt your baby, according to the CDC.

Trump joins model Chrissy Teigen, singer Adele and actress Gwyneth Paltrow, who are among the celebrities who have opened up about their struggle to raise awareness about the postpartum depression.

Advocates say that in recent years, more mothers are learning about and treating the illness, with medical providers screening for depression more routinely and lawmakers beginning to look for ways to expand treatment options. But the health-care repeal plan Senate Republicans could vote on next week could make it much harder for U.S. mothers to get pre- and-post natal care. The plan allows states to apply for waivers to let insurers opt out of Affordable Care Act, or Obamacare, protections, such as maternity coverage.
