Given the negative consequences that depressive symptoms can pose for pregnant women, it is crucial to understand how cognitive processes influence women\u2019s depressive symptoms during the COVID-19 pandemic among this specific vulnerable population. The present study aimed to examine the relationship between pregnant women\u2019s dysfunctional attitudes toward motherhood and their depressive symptoms, considering the mediating roles of self-compassion and mindful self-care.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Method<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>A cross-sectional online survey was conducted in Portugal between October 2020 and April 2021.
