The review focuses on qualitative literature describing the experiences of immigrant women with postpartum depression. Initial electronic searching was done by using Medline and CINAHL database. The references lists of related articles are also reviewed. Three articles were chosen for the review with careful consideration. The findings can be organized into three themes: differences of meanings of childbearing and postpartum practice among immigrant women, factors contributing to immigrant women’s postpartum depression, and factors aiding recovery. The results of the review can lead to instrumental and conceptual utilization. The review indicates that some further research, including research from the perspectives of health care givers, and research on immigrant cultures, is needed
