| Abstract (English): |
High stress, the anxiety and the depression in the perinatal stage are not systematically addressed from the health services. These experiences have important consequences, both for the mother who suffers them and for her son or daughter. We comment on the scientific evidence that shows us how these psychological problems of the mother affect the child's mental health and adolescent (temperament, cognitive development, behavior, emotional development), and the anatomical and physiological bases that explain it. All this leads to the need for early detection of mental health problems in pregnancy and after delivery, as well as the development of possible interventions to minimize their effects, and the need for support from the mental health and social work units.

| Abstract (Spanish): |
El estrés elevado, la ansiedad y la depresión en la etapa perinatal no se abordan sistemáticamente desde los servicios sanitarios. Estas vivencias tienen consecuencias importantes, tanto para la madre que las sufre como para su hijo o hija. En este artículo exponemos las evidencias científicas que muestran cómo afectan estos problemas psicológicos de la madre a la salud mental del niño y adolescente (temperamento, desarrollo cognitivo, conducta, desarrollo emocional), así como las bases anatómicas y fisiológicas que lo explican. Todo ello pone de manifiesto que es necesario hacer una detección precoz de los problemas de salud mental en la gestación y tras el parto, desarrollar posibles intervenciones para minimizar sus efectos, y contar con el apoyo de las unidades de salud mental y de trabajo social.
