Mother-infant postnatal experience and its association with maternal emotion and coping during the COVID-19 pandemic

Perceptions of motherhood in mothers of children with disabilities in Turkey: a qualitative study
CONCLUSION: The women involved in the study produced the most metaphors for their perceptions of being a mother of a child with a disability for the sub-theme of imprisonment/isolation in the main theme of challenges. On the other hand, the least number of metaphors were produced in the sub-theme of acceptance/change in the outlook on life in the main theme of interpretation.

Preterm premature rupture of the membranes (PPROM): a study of patient experiences and support needs
CONCLUSION: This survey highlights areas in which care needs to be improved for women with PPROM. Previous studies have shown that providing good care during the antenatal period reduces long-term psychological morbidity for the whole family. The need for support, with regard both to information provided to women and their families and their psychological support needs to be addressed urgently.PMID:38361489 | DOI:10.1080/02646838.2024.2314179 (Source: Journal of Reproductive and Infant Psychology)

Navigating work and motherhood: exploring the link between career orientation and childbearing motivations in emerging adulthood
CONCLUSIONS: Our results demonstrate that career aspirations are a highly complex construct, and their relationship to childbearing motivation may differ depending on how women perceive their future in the labour market. The mere desire to engage in professional work is not detrimental to childbearing motivation, but the anticipated costs of having children become greater the more a woman is career-centred and the lower her self-esteem.PMID:38363339 | DOI:10.1080/02646838.2024.2316317 (Source: Journal of Reproductive and Infant Psychology)
