Coefficients are unstandardized. Reference groups for categorical variables are as follows: White racial identity; less than a high school education or equivalent; annual household income ≤$30,000. T0, baseline assessment; T6, postpartum assessment. CES‐D indicates Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale; CVH, cardiovascular health; GED, General Educational Development; PSS, Perceived Stress Scale; and RMSE, root mean squared error.
