Perinatal mood disorders are a serious problem that affect many women and which frequently go undiagnosed; one in ten women will experience postpartum depression (PPD) (Burt & Stein, 2008; Peindl, Wisner, & Hanusa, 2004). Mindfulness, self-compassion, and social support are known to enhance maternal well-being and reduce psychological stress leading to depression and anxiety (Sawyer Cohen, 2011). Support positively impacts the prevalence, intensity, and duration of depression, especially during the postpartum period (Evans, Donelle, & Hume-Loverland, 2012). Support has therapeutic value (White & Dorman, 2001) and maximizing perceived support can ameliorate depression (Milgrom, Negri, Gemmill, McNeil, & Martin, 2005). New mothers with limited access to services are now seeking help using the Internet (McDaniel, Coyne, & Holmes, 2012). Online forums provide support for new parents, and have enabled access to peer support in a variety of new ways, including easier connections with perinatal peers (Bruinooge, 2007; Dunham et al., 1998; Evans et al., 2012). The objective of this study was to explore the relationship between Maternal Internet Support (MIS) use (time, frequency), online social support, depression, anxiety, self-compassion and mindfulness (Brugha et al., 1998; Dennis et al., 2009; Houston, Cooper, & Ford, 2002; Stuchbery, Matthey, & Barnett, 1998). Perinatal MIS users (N = 203) who read, replied or created posts to MIS sites, completed an online survey about their experiences and well-being. The study hypothesized that increased MIS online social support, and increased MIS use (time and visits) would predict lower levels of anxiety and depression, and alternatively higher levels of mindfulness and self-compassion. The results of this study revealed that more online social support predicted less depression, more mindfulness, and more self-compassion. Women reported convenience and informational support as important for MIS use, and benefits such as being a more empowered mother. Future use of MIS may be recommended as an adjunctive form of support for perinatal women.
