Extract

It has generally been considered by obstetricians and psychiatrists that the insanity of pregnancy, in common with other forms of insanity associated with the reproductive function, offers a favourable prognosis from the point of view of complete mental recovery of the mother. This standard view is to be found in most text-books on midwifery and mental diseases.
