Oxytocin as an adjunct to interaction coaching and baby massage to improve bonding in the early postpartum.

This study is for first-time mothers who are experiencing some depression and feel they are not bonding well with their newborn baby. It is testing whether a nasal spray of oxytocin (sometimes called the 'bonding hormone') combined with coaching on how to interact with and massage their baby can improve the mother-infant relationship.
