“…Unplanned pregnancy, father's negative reaction to the pregnancy, long duration of labour, method of delivery, absence of early contact with the newborn, infant feeding method, and maternity blues have been identified as impacting early maternal attachment (Cetisli et al, ; Nagata et al, ; Pascoe & French, ; Troy, ). During the months after birth, pre and post‐partum depressive symptoms, low level of partner satisfaction, low social support, separation with the baby during the first days, prenatal attitudes and expectations, and a history of childhood sexual abuse increase the risk of low maternal attachment to the child (Boztepe, Ay, Kerimoglu Yildiz, & Cinar, ; Mutlu, Erkut, Yıldırım, & Gündoğdu, ; Nieto, Lara, & Navarrete, ; Peterson & Mehl, ). In addition, having an infant who suffers from excessive crying has been associated with lower levels of maternal attachment (Bond, Prager, Tiggemann, & Tao, ).…”

Background: Parenting stress is influenced by many factors including maternal attachment and excessive infant crying, yet the nature of these relationships is not well understood. For example, excessive infant crying despite maternal soothing may impact maternal attachment to the child, leading to higher stress. This paper explored whether maternal perception of excessive infant crying at 6 months was associated with higher maternal parenting stress at 24 months, and whether maternal attachment mediated this relationship.Methods: All families, present at 24 months in a randomized controlled trial of a 5year early intervention programme targeting school readiness skills in disadvantaged area of Ireland, were included. At 6 months, infant crying was assessed using a maternal reported measure of duration of infant crying, and maternal attachment to the infant was assessed using the Condon Maternal Attachment Scale. Parenting stress was assessed at 24 months using the childrearing stress subscale from the Parenting Stress Index. Structural equation modelling was used to explore the direct and indirect effects of maternal perceptions of excessive infant crying on parenting stress, controlling for infant, maternal, and environmental characteristics, and focusing on the mediating role of maternal attachment.Results: Reporting excessive infant crying at 6 months was associated with lower maternal attachment at 6 months, which led to higher parenting stress at 24 months.In addition, vulnerable adult attachment style, previous maternal mental health difficulties, low paternal education, paternal involvement with the child, and not being married were associated with higher parenting stress.Conclusion: Findings suggest that the association between maternal perceptions of excessive crying at 6 months and later parenting stress may be mediated through maternal attachment to the infant. Interventions based on improving maternal attachment could be investigated to determine the effectiveness of supporting mothers with low attachment.

“…Maternal depression, which has been acknowledged as a predictor for bonding disorders [22,23], statistically impacts the association of maternal bonding disorders with CL/P birth, because mothers with CL/P birth are generally troubled with more parenting and/or caregiving issues with regard to feeding and breathing developments [5][6][7]. Furthermore, because the visual impacts of cleft lip possibly influence the processing of maternalto-infant bonding as suggested by Boztepe et al [12], we focused on whether the prevalence of cleft lip was associated with bonding disorders among advanced-age multiparae. Consequently, the significant association of bonding disorders with prevalence of CL±P birth did not remain after the adjustment using all covariates (OR [95% CI] = 2.31 [0.93-5.73], p = 0.072).…”

“…Most of this maltreatment was in the form of supervisory neglect (about 70%); however, a significantly higher risk of medical neglect was also observed [10,11]. Boztepe et al also indicated that, in comparison with congenital heart disease, cleft lip was more likely to adversely affect maternal emotional connection toward the infant possibly due to the visual aspects of the condition [12]. Indeed, there is increasing evidence suggesting potential impairments of infant-maternal attachments among children with CL/P [13][14][15].…”

Background: Cleft lip and/or palate is among the most prevalent congenital birth defects, and negatively affects maternal psychological status and may consequently result in higher prevalence of child maltreatment. However, the association of cleft lip and/or palate childbirths with bonding disorders still remains unclear. We examined the association between cleft lip and/or palate childbirth and mother-to-infant bonding, using data from the Japan Environment and Children's Study, a nationwide birth cohort study. Methods: A cross-sectional study using the jecs-an-20180131 dataset was performed. A total of 104,065 foetuses in 15 regional centres in Japan were enrolled after obtaining informed written consent. The Mother-to-Infant Bonding Scale, a self-report scale consisting of 10 items, was used to evaluate maternal bonding at 1 year after childbirth. Finally, the participants consisted of 79,140 mother-infant pairs, of which 211 mothers with cleft lip and/or palate infants were included in our analyses. Multivariable logistic regression analysis using multiple imputation for missing data was performed to calculate the odds ratio and 95% confidence interval in the estimation of the association between bonding disorders and childbirth with cleft lip and/or palate. Results: No increased risk of bonding disorders was observed among all the mothers with cleft lip and/or palate childbirths (odds ratio [95% confidence interval]; 0.97 [0.63-1.48], p = 0.880), and advanced maternal age or multiple parity may adversely affect the associations between bonding disorders and cleft lip and/or palate childbirths, respectively. After stratification with a combination of maternal age and parity, a significant association of cleft lip and/or palate childbirth with bonding disorders was found only among advanced-age multiparae (odds ratio [95% confidence interval] = 2.51 [1.17-5.37], p = 0.018), but it was weakened after additional adjustment for maternal depression. Conclusions: Cleft lip and/or palate childbirth may increase the risk of bonding disorders among advanced-age multiparae, possibly through maternal depression. This finding provides valuable information for the provision of multidisciplinary cleft care.
