  1. EMS early maladaptive schemas, MAAS Maternal Antenatal Attachment Scale, QMB quality of maternal bonding, IPF intensity of preoccupation with the fetus; avariables were dummy coded with four or more years of higher education as a reference; bvariables were dummy coded with 350,000 NOK (44,980 USD) or less as a reference; “Mental health help seeking” = having been in contact with professionals for mental health issues; “Previous experience with being depressed” = Previous experience with being depressed most of the day, almost every day for a period of 2 weeks; “Previous lack of joy” = Having previously had a 2-week period of diminished ability to enjoy things one has usually found enjoyable; confidence intervals and standard errors were based on 9979 bootstrap samples, as SPSS did not manage to generate the requested 10,000 samples; N = 163
