“…According to the results from the studies, quality of life in women was moderate at 6 -8 and 12 -14 weeks postpartum (24,27). Therefore, the protective measures by the spouse, family members, and caregivers during pregnancy and post-partum are necessary to improve the quality of life and health status of the mothers (27).…”

“…It can be said that vulnerability in women during this period is associated with reduced selfcare during post-partum (1). The midwife is considered to play a significant role in post-partum transition (24), counseling and maternal care during pregnancy, childbirth, and post-partum (25), maintaining and improving maternal and infant health, providing favorable care, counseling, and teaching health to women, family and society (26). Therefore, the midwife should assess the women in terms of their risk factors, mental and physical health, and compatibility with post-partum conditions, and educate the appropriate preventative strategies and provide the necessary care (2).…”

Background: During the post-partum period, due to the lack of knowledge about post-partum complications and care, women, especially primiparous women, lack the adequate skills to adapt to new conditions and have no confidence to care for themselves and their infants. The early mothers' assessment, education, counseling, and nursing interventions can increase their adaptation and reduce their incompatible responses to their infant and partner. Objectives: This study aimed to examine the effect of early self-care based education program on primiparous women’s self-evaluation. Methods: A randomized controlled clinical trial was conducted from May to October 2018 on 58 primiparous women referred to the Neonatal Screening Center in Karaj (IRAN). A random allocation method was applied to select intervention and control groups. The data were collected using a three-part questionnaire consisting of general, developmental, and health deviation post-partum evaluation made by researchers. The intervention group received three education sessions throughout the 3 - 5, 10 - 15, and 17 - 22 days after childbirth. The control group received routine post-partum care. Data were analyzed by descriptive statistics (such as mean, standard deviation, and absolute frequency) and statistical tests (including t-test, paired t-test, and chi-square) or non-parametric statistical tests (e.g., the Wilcoxon and Mann-Whitney test) using SPSS version 19. Results: Before the intervention, there was no statistically significant difference in the mean total self-evaluation scores between the intervention (131.269 ± 12.742) and control (137 ± 9.600) groups (P-value = 0.073), but six weeks after delivery, a significant difference was observed in the mean self-evaluation scores between the intervention (149.692 ± 7.625) and control (122.923 ± 11.495) groups (P-value < 0.001). Conclusions: The results of this study showed that early self-care education program was effective for primiparous women's self-evaluation and increased the post-partum adaptation of the women.

“…Women with good adaptation to the maternal role during pregnancy are more likely to rely on power in coping with postpartum maternal duties 3,17 . Factors, such as education level, occupation, income level, and social security, which determine the sociological status of women, are very significant factors affecting the maternal role of women 18 . In this study, it was found that the score obtained from the subscale relying on power in coping with maternal duties did not change according to the age, education time, employment, and economic status of the women.…”

In the studies, it was determined that mothers, who had high income 5,18 and education levels, who were at an advanced age, and who worked 5,18 , had better adaptation to the maternal role. In order to facilitate adaptation to the process of transition to maternity, it is vital that health care providers know this process.…”

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to determine the relationship of the prenatal psychosocial profile with postpartum maternity duties and newborn care. METHODS: This descriptive and correlational study was conducted on 154 pregnant women. RESULTS: It was determined that pregnant women had low-stress levels, high social support from their husbands and other people, and moderate self-esteem. Participants relying on power in coping with maternity duties in the postpartum period and satisfaction with maternity and newborn care were found to be high. CONCLUSION: Adaptation to the postpartum period facilitates the transition to maternity and increases satisfaction with newborn care.

Social support is commonly associated with women's postpartum health. Yet such support can also have unintended effects and trigger negative reactions. This study provides a qualitative examination of the positive and negative social interactions described by Arab postpartum women. Participants were Arab women recruited at Mother and Child Healthcare Clinics (MCHC). Inclusion criteria were married women over the age of 18 with a healthy newborn who described both positive and negative social experiences. Exclusion criteria were signs of postpartum depression. Data were gathered using semi‐structured in‐depth interviews that were audio‐recorded and transcribed verbatim. Themes and categories were extracted based on interpretative phenomenological analysis. The impact of lived experiences on the well‐being of postpartum women was explored. Data analysis revealed three main themes: (1) Support from the family and community: positive impact on the mother; (2) Negative social interactions as invasion of mother's personal space; (3) Impact of negative social interactions on mother's relationship with her family. A deeper understanding of the social environment of these women and the factors that affect their well‐being during the critical postpartum period can help MCHC staff offer culturally appropriate support and relevant interventions.
