“…In the study by Fern et al (2002), the following benefits were observed among newborns during the SB practice: decreased physiological and motor stress symptoms and therefore conserved energy; decreased crying and agitation; facilitated social interaction by keeping the newborn in a calm, quiet alert state; increased selfregulation, and enhanced ability to participate in feeding immediately after the bath. They also identified an increased parental comfort level and confidence, facilitated parent attachment, enhanced interaction with the newborn, and decreased parental stress.…”

“…However, it was found that the mothers in the TB group were more worried about bad bathing experiences such as the newborn drowning, feeling afraid and crying. In the literature, there were many studies where different bathing methods were compared in preterm and term newborns in a hospital environment (Ar & Gözen, 2018;Çaka & Gözen, 2018;DeVall & Rubarth, 2014;Edraki et al, 2014;Fern et al, 2002;Quraishy et al, 2013).…”

“…When the literature is examined, there are studies on the effect of different bathing methods (Çaka & Gözen, 2018;Quraishy, Bowles, & Moore, 2013), time (Blume-Peytavi et al, 2009;Medves & O'brien, 2004;Ruschel, Pedrini, & Cunha, 2018) and frequency (Bryanton, Walsh, Barrett, & Gaudet, 2004;Loring et al, 2012;So et al, 2014) on the physiological measurements and duration of crying times (Çaka & Gözen, 2018;Edraki, Paran, Montaseri, Nejad, & Montaseri, 2014;Fern, Graves, & L'Huillier, 2002) in preterm/ term newborns in the hospital environment. However, there was no study on the first bath of full-term newborns at home.…”

The aim of this study is to compare the effect of two different bathing methods training given during pregnancy on the mother's experience, satisfaction and newborn's physiological and behavioral parameters during the first bathing of the newborn at home. Methods: A mixed methods research was used in this study. The groups were determined as swaddled bathing (SB) (n = 31) and tub bathing (TB) (n = 31). After training given to the groups, the first bath of the newborn in both groups was built by the mothers. The body temperature, heart rate, oxygen saturation, respiration rate, crying times, stress parameters of the newborns and mother satisfaction in both groups were evaluated. The open-ended questions were used to determine mothers' experiences. Results: There was a statistically significant difference between the groups in terms of oxygen saturation, respiration rate, crying time, face/forehead grimacing, unrest and maternal satisfaction. Four categories and 14 subcategories made up the qualitative part of the study which includes the experiences of the mother about two different bathing methods. "The feelings and worries of the mothers about first bathing" refers to the participants in both groups how they feel during the first bathing; "Positive aspects of this method compared to other bath method" and "Negative aspects of this method compared to other bath method" refers to positive and negative aspects of different bathing methods applied to groups; "Difference between the applied bathing method and other methods" refers to differences they observed when compared to other bathing methods. The mothers in the SB group had less fear of drowning hazard and injuring the newborn, and the fear of uneasiness and the newborn slipping down from hands were more frequent in the TB group.
