Background: The views of fathers have been shown to be important determinants of infant feeding decisions, but men’s perceptions of breastfeeding and formula feeding are rarely explored. Our objectives were to address this gap and examine cultural associations and beliefs concerning infant feeding practices among men.
Methods: Five focus groups were conducted with low‐income men (n =28) living...
Background: Previous research suggests that alcohol use during pregnancy and breastfeeding has a negative impact on birth and neonatal outcomes. No threshold for this effect has been determined. The aim of this study is to determine the prevalence and correlates of alcohol use in pregnancy and lactation in a large representative sample of Australian women.
Method: Data were used from a large representative...
Abstract: A Swiss study attempted to establish normal values for the uterine involution expected during the first 5 days postpartum. Two methods were used, apparently independently and without validation. One, named the finger method, consisted of estimating the height of the uterine fundus in finger breadths above or below the umbilicus. The other, the tape method, consisted of marking the distance...
Abstract: Background: The latent phase of labor can vary greatly in duration, and many women are uncertain about when to contact the maternity unit. The aim of this study was to elicit and value women’s preferences for some aspects of labor management.
Methods: A questionnaire was sent to 1,251 women who had recently given birth to their first child at one of 14 maternity units in Scotland. Discrete...
Background: Cervical dilatation is commonly documented on a partogram indicating the expected rate of progress of labor. Although deviations from such a line can be used to indicate abnormal progress, what constitutes the “normal” rate of cervical dilation is still largely unknown. The objectives of this study were to assess the variability of the rate of cervical dilation in nulliparous women and...
Abstract: Background: Both peer and professional support have been identified as important to the success of breastfeeding. The aim of this metasynthesis was to examine women’s perceptions and experiences of breastfeeding support, either professional or peer, to illuminate the components of support that they deemed “supportive.”
Methods: The metasynthesis included studies of both formal or “created”...
Abstract: Background: It has been argued that having a stillborn baby in the family affects older siblings more than parents realize. The aim of this study was to describe parenthood and the needs of siblings after stillbirth from the parents’ perspective.
Methods: Six focus groups were held with 27 parents who had experienced a stillbirth and who had had children before the loss. The discussion...
Abstract: Background: Uncontrolled pregestational diabetes in pregnancy is associated with an increased risk for a major birth defect and additional adverse pregnancy outcomes. The study objective was to investigate the concerns of health care practitioners who care for women with a history of diabetes during pregnancy and their perceptions of attitudes and barriers to achieving good glycemic control...
Background: Attitudes drive practice, perhaps more than evidence. The objective of this study was to determine if the new generation of Canadian obstetricians has attitudes differing from those of their predecessors.
Methods: Employing a cross‐sectional, Internet, and paper‐based survey, we conducted an in‐depth study of obstetricians responding to the Canadian National Maternity Care Attitudes Survey....
