Mothers who are in the period of pregnancy and childbirth are prone to experience anxiety and depression due to the change in role from an ordinary woman to a mother. The emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic has affected the mental health of pregnant and postpartum women. This study aims to describe the relationship between the mental health of pregnant women and the incidence of depression during pregnancy and childbirth, the impact of depression on pregnancy and childbirth, prevention, and treatment of depression in pregnant and postpartum women during the COVID-19 pandemic. The method used is a literature review by collecting research sources in the 2019-2023 range from online databases such as GARUDA, Google Scholar, and Science Direct. The sources collected were filtered using the PRISMA method to produce concise facts about the topics to be discussed. From 10 articles, various studies were found from several countries debating the factors that cause depression during pregnancy and childbirth such as the role of partners, family, social support, lifestyle, education, and the economy. There are depressive impacts on the mother and fetus, such as premature birth, baby blues, malnutrition, impaired brain growth, low birth weight, and stunting. Early prevention and treatment need to be done to prevent adverse effects and even further complications.

This type of research is a qualitative research with a phenomenological approach. The number of informants was 22 people consisting of 10 key informants who received the COVID-19 vaccination and 10 key informants who had not received the COVID-19 vaccination and the supporting informants consisted of the head of the puskesmas and the manager of the COVID 19 vaccination program. The method used was purposive sampling , namely determine the sample with certain considerations. The results show that there are obstacles in receiving the COVID-19 vaccination, namely fear and doubt about the post-vaccination side effects that can be fatal and even cause death, loss of confidence, confidence in the effectiveness and safety of vaccines and public access to services. The reason people receive the COVID-19 vaccination is internal factors such as the intention of the informant, namely as a way to prevent and protect themselves from the risk of COVID-19 transmission. External factors, namely there are regulations from an agency, both universities and the government, requiring informants to have a COVID-19 vaccine card.
