Abstract: Suicidal ideations (SI) among mothers are prominent and may denote risk for both the mother and her offspring. Suicide in low- and middle-income countries is understudied and undertheorized, with limited suicide prevention programs targeting local risk constellations. Theories related to the intergenerational transmission of maternal depression may not capture specific exposures or mechanisms conveyed through suicidal exposures over time.
