<![CDATA[Background: Postpartum depression is a common psychological disorder experienced by mothers after childbirth and may adversely affect the mother, infant, and family. Several factors are presumed to contribute to the occurrence of postpartum depression, including maternal age, parity, education level, and husband’s support. Objective: This study aimed to identify factors associated with the incidence of postpartum depression among postpartum mothers at an Independent Midwifery Practice (PMB S) in Bandung City. Methods: A descriptive correlational study with a cross-sectional design was conducted. The sample consisted of 40 postpartum mothers selected using total sampling. The Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) was used to measure postpartum depression, and the Postpartum Social Support Questionnaire (PSSQ) was used to assess husband’s support. Data were analyzed using Fisher’s Exact Test. Results: A total of 67.5% of postpartum mothers experienced postpartum depression. Statistical analysis showed no significant association between age (p = 0.083), parity (p = 0.053), and education level (p = 0.664) with postpartum depression. However, a significant association was found between husband’s support and postpartum depression (p = 0.000). Conclusion: Husband’s support was the most significant factor associated with postpartum depression among postpartum mothers at PMB S Bandung City in 2025. Therefore, interventions involving husbands in postpartum care are essential to prevent postpartum depression.]]>
