Bipolar illness can be particularly difficult to manage in pregnancy and during the post-partum period. The risks of mood stabilizing medication on the health of the infant must be considered carefully along with the risks of uncontrolled illness in the mother. Lithium use in pregnancy and lactation has been associated with a number of negative effects in the newborn. This article reviews the latest evidence regarding the risks and benefits of the use of lithium in pregnant or lactating women.

Patients with puerperal sepsis following delivery at Ife State Hospital (ISH) of Obafemi Awolowo University Teaching Hospitals Complex (OAUTHC) Ile-Ife over a 10-year period spanning January 1986 to December 1995 were reviewed. One hundred and forty-six patients were diagnosed as having puerperal sepsis and there were 8428 deliveries giving an incidence of 1.7%. The incidence was higher among the unbooked patients 71.2%. Predisposing factors were: anaemia in pregnancy, 69.2%; prolonged labour (labour lasting up to 12 h or more), 65.7%; frequent vaginal examinations in labour (more than five), 50.7%; premature rupture of membranes, 31.5%; and non-adherence to asepsis during delivery. The case mortality rate was 4.1 %. Antenatal care and supervised hospital delivery should be encouraged in order to prevent or reduce this serious post-partum morbidity.
