The family of a missing new mother says she's experiencing post-partum depression and her disappearance is highly out of character.

Police put out a missing person's bulletin for Florence Leung Tuesday, even though she was last seen that day.

Kim Chen, Leung's husband, said they are very concerned about her wellbeing. The couple has a two month old son.

"She's very caring, very humourous, very lively," he said. "We all hope she is just catching her breath and having a drive outside."

Chen said his wife has been receiving treament for depression for the past week.

Leung is 5'6 tall with a slim build and long black hair. She was last seen in her white Audi Q5 leaving her home on London Street in New Westminster.
