I hate it when I hear certain kinds of news.

Did you know that a study just *proved* that pregnancy isn't a cure for depression?

Really! It's true! Some pregnant women are depressed. Pregnancy is not a universal, 100% effective, antidepressant!

Someone, *please*, tell me there's more to this than I've heard.

Or, at least tell me that they did this study because they knew they had to prove to some idiots the plain, simple, and obvious truth. *Please* tell me that it wasn't a matter of having to think about what the answer would be.

Nod. I am someone's done this bit of research. It still scares me how long some ideas can stick around medicine's store of conventional wisdom.
