      abstract = {<p>The objective of this presentation is to discuss  physical and social factors that affect postpartum mental  health. An additional focus of this presentation is to  discuss the considerations of occupational therapy, as well  as present potential treatments that could benefit the  mental health of postpartum mothers. Occupational therapy  practitioners are trained in addressing occupational  performance challenges that arise in early motherhood,  including self-care needs, parenting roles/family dynamics,  establishing routines, and developing coping strategies.  The field of occupational therapy is currently  underutilized in postpartum health. The findings of this  research project advocate for addressing postpartum mental  health and the value occupational therapy services could  pose to postpartum mothers.</p>},
