ABSTRACT:Parenthood is among the developmental transitions that set major challenges for contemporary families. When there is a twin pregnancy, those challenges increase. Our aims in this study are understanding the parental experience in families with twins and identifying the factors which condition parental experience in such families. It is a literature review focusing on studies published between 2000 and 2012 based on reference data. The articles were analyzed considering the aims, participants, phases of data collection, tools used; and results achieved regarding the dimensions involved in parenting experiences faced by parents of twins. In the 19 studies identified, maternity was the main focus of research. Women with twin children showed lower scores on well-being, higher stress risks, exhaustion and depression. The experience of these families was different, more demanding and complex than singletons' parents. Understanding of this matter becomes crucial to contributing to better health for families. LA FAMILIA EN LA PERSPECTIVA GEMELAR -UNA REVISIÓN SISTEMÁTICA RESUMEN: La paternidad es una de las transiciones del desarrollo que plantea más desafíos a la familia contemporánea. En un embarazo gemelar estos retos son engrandecidos. Los objetivos del estudio fueron conocer la experiencia de la paternidad en familias con gemelos y analizar los factores que influyen en sus experiencias de paternidad. Para este propósito se analizaron artículos publicados entre 2000-2012 en bases de datos referencia. Los artículos fueron analizados teniendo en cuenta: objetivos, participantes, tiempo de recolección de datos, instrumentos utilizados y los resultados, atendiendo las variables que integran la experiencia de paternidad gemelar. En los 19 estudios identificados, la maternidad era el foco central de investigación. Las mujeres con gemelos han tenido resultados más bajos de bienestar, aumentando el riesgo de estrés, agotamiento y depresión. La experiencia de las familias fue diferente, más exigente y compleja que para otros padres. Comprender el tema es fundamental para maximizar la salud de la familia. DESCRIPTORS:

BackgroundThe long-term effect of treatment with donated oocytes on women’s and men’s perception of their relationship has been little studied. Thus the aim of this study was to analyse satisfaction with relationships in couples at the time of acceptance for treatment and 2–5 years after treatment with donated gametes and to compare them with IVF couples treated with their own gametes.MethodA prospective follow-up study in which data were collected twice on two groups; cohabitating couples receiving oocyte donation and cohabitating IVF couples using their own gametes. A standardised instrument, the ENRICH inventory, was used to gain information about the couples’ subjective experience of their relationships.ResultsAt acceptance for treatment the couples in the two groups assessed their relationships as being very solid on all dimensions and that the women receiving treatment with oocyte showed a higher satisfaction compared to women treated with own gametes. For couples that did have a child, the group of women who had been through the oocyte donating program reported a better quality of their relationship than women in the control group. There were no significant differences in perceived relationship quality between men in the different groups, whether they had a child or not.ConclusionsFrom a long-term perspective couples using oocyte donation treatment have a balanced and solid view of their relationship and treatment, having children or not after treatment did not affect the nature of the relationships.

“…In general, women who undergo infertility treatment have fewer risk factors of PND. They have a higher socioeconomic status, enjoy relationships of a better quality with a longer duration and are more psychologically welladjusted than those who conceive naturally [24][25][26][27][28] . Therefore, Ross et al (2011) speculated that future studies controlling for these factors may in fact find the risk of PND to be increased among women who have undergone infertility treatment.…”

Results: Initial analyses showed that PND was more common in the control group than the IVF group (0.8% vs. 0.4%; p=0.04). However, these differences disappeared when confounding factors were controlled for. A history of any psychiatric illness (p=.000; OR=25.5; 95 % CI=11.7-55.5), any previous affective disorder (p=,000; OR=26.0; 95%CI=10.5-64.0) or specifically a personality disorder (p=.028; OR=3.8; 95 % CI=1.2-12.7) increased the risk of PND. No woman in either group committed suicide during the first year after childbirth.Conclusions: While mothers who receive IVF treatment are not at increased risk of PND, the risk is increased among mothers with a history of mental illness.
