Abstract
Attention to emotional disorders during the perinatal stage is a crucial aspect; during this period, the mother experiences a series of significant changes that can influence her well-being and, therefore, that of the newborn. Appropriate detection and treatment of emotional disorders, such as perinatal depression and anxiety, are essential to ensure a healthy environment. The objective of this study was to describe the emotions perceived during the perinatal period by women of the Mayan ethnic group. This analysis is essential to better understand emotional experiences and provide a solid foundation for the development of mental health interventions. We sought to identify the predominant feelings, when faced with questions related to their emotions and actions in certain situations. Finally, it was possible to obtain proposals from the Mayan community, which reflected their main needs for the well-being of their mental health.
