Abstract: Early childhood development is the key to a full and productive life for a child and to the progress of a nation.1 The early stage of life is a period of rapid growth and development from the first day of pregnancy until 2 year of age, the so called “first 1000 days”. Thus, this period offers a critical window of opportunity to shape long term health. It is a period of enormous potential, but also of enormous vulnerability.2 Depression can have negative effects on early infant growth, a problem that might be more pronounced in low income countries with less favourable environments.
