“…In Turkey, most women can reach the care system in the form of medical check-ups in the first two days 21 . However, there are no precise data on the continuity and quality of followup care 36 . Even though there is some support (educational classes, follow-up programs etc.)…”
INTRODUCTION The postpartum period is part of an important process for mothers and fathers. A sense of security is central as it might influence a parent's journey towards becoming a successful parent. The aim was to determine factors affecting parents' postnatal sense of security (PPSS) before postpartum discharge from a hospital in Konya, Turkey. METHODS A descriptive study was conducted. From January 2019 to March 2019, a questionnaire was given to a convenience sample of 188 couples discharged from a regional hospital in Turkey. The sense of security was assessed using the PPSS instrument, with low scores defined as those less than the mean. RESULTS Low and high sense of security was based on the mean in the population, for mothers 49.36 and for fathers 34.90. It was found that 43.6% of mothers and 69.7 % of fathers had a low score, which was linked to some specific factors in the postpartum period. These were the type of birth, being ready to take responsibility for baby care, being ready to be discharged, being healthy, having any concern about the baby's health, social support presence, having professional support, and presence of a sense of security. CONCLUSIONS Many parents, particularly fathers, have a low postnatal sense of security. In the postpartum period, it is very important for midwives, who are always with the family, to identify the risks for a low sense of security during this period and provide effective care. More studies in different settings with larger samples are recommended.

“…Emzirme eylemi, anne ve bebek arasındaki fiziksel temasın sağlanması ile etkileşimlerinin arttığı bir süreçtir. Bu etkileşimli süreçte anneye ait bazı sosyodemografik ve obstetrik özelliklerin emzirme becerisi üzerinde etkisi olduğu bilinmektedir (21) . Bu çalışmada anneye ait değişkenler ile EAÖ toplam puanı karşılaştırıldığında anne yaşı, gebelik sayısı, doğum sayısı ile EAÖ puanı arasında pozitif yönde ve çok zayıf düzeyde anlamlı bir ilişki belirlendi.…”
Aim:The aim of this study is to determine the effect of mode of delivery on breastfeeding adaptation in breastfeeding mothers. Methods: The population of the study consisted of 350 mothers who applied to the pediatric outpatient clinic of the university hospital for hip ultrasound scanning between March and April 2022. Questionnaire and Breastfeeding Adaptation Scale (EAS) were used to obtain the data. Results: It was determined that the mean age of the participants was 28. 37±5.46, 52.6% (n:184) had a normal delivery and 47.4% (n:166) had a cesarean delivery.No statistical significance was determined when the type of delivery was compared with the Breastfeeding Adaptation Scale (BAS) total score.The mean score of the 'emotional exchange with the baby' sub-dimension, which is one of the BAS sub-dimensions, was found to be significantly higher in mothers who gave birth normally (p<0.005).When the maternal variables were compared with the BAS scores, it was determined that the BAS scores were significantly higher in mothers with low educational status.The BAS scores of working mothers were significantly lower. A significant difference was determined between the income status variable and the mean BAS score.The mothers who thought they had enough fluid had a significantly higher BAS score.The mean BAS score of mothers of exclusively breastfed infants was found to be significantly higher than that of mothers of breastfed and formula-fed infants.A positive and very weak significant correlation was determined between maternal age, number of pregnancies, number of births and BAS score (p<0.005).
Conclusion:According to our research findings, mode of delivery does not affect breastfeeding adaptation.It was concluded that as the number of births increased, breastfeeding adaptation increased positively.
“…Bu çalışmadan elde edilen bulgular, doğum öncesi bakımın sağlık eğitimi bileşeninin yerine yetirilmesinde önemli eksiklikler olduğunu göstermektedir. Kadınlara en fazla anne sütü ve emzirme (%54,5), en az aile ise kadınların %94'üne kan testinin yapıldığı, %92'sine demir desteği verildiği, %90'ına kilo ölçümü, %88'ine kan basıncı ölçümü ve idrar testi hizmeti sunulduğu saptanmıştır(20). Yozgat il merkezinde a) gebelik süresince en az iki kez yapılmıştır.İletişim: Doç.…”
