“…This contradiction of feelings has been reported in studies that showed that in many cases, the reality of breastfeeding did not reflect the expectations that mothers had about the process (Cortés & Díaz, 2019;Morns et al, 2021). In view of idea that breastfeeding is a natural process, these studies bring to light a confrontation between the reality of the mothers' struggle and cultural construction that breastfeeding is a problem-free process (Berlanga et al, 2013;Cortés & Díaz, 2019).…”

Background: In this study, we explored the mothers perception about their breastfeeding or weaning process. Methods: We conducted a clinical-qualitative study consisting of individual interviews with an intentional sample, closed by theoretical saturation criterion. Results: We analyzed the data using clinical-qualitative content analysis. We interviewed nine mothers aged between 29 and 41 years, who exclusively breastfed for 2 to 6 months. We established three thematic categories: 1) “The weaning paradox: between discomfort and relief from the process”; 2) “Leaving something behind: the bond with the child or with the work?”; and 3) “Ambiguity of control and care”. Women who breastfeed or are in the process of weaning face many contradictory feelings, generating challenges and anguish to decide the best way to care. Conclusions: Health professionals can improve these women's experiences by opening a space for listening and understanding the emotional and social conditions involved.

“…We finally asked, “If women, because of their work schedule, do not manage reconciling work and family needs, they feel bad and guilty (in other words, if they cannot take part in activities with the children, cannot take care of them or accompany them).” This item was based on works by Rodríguez et al (2009) and Berlanga et al (2013).…”

Male Majority, Female Majority, or Gender Diversity in Organizations: How Do Proportions Affect Gender Stereotyping and Women Leaders’ Well-Being?

2019

Whereas popular wisdom often centers on character differences between women and men when explaining work-related behavior, Kanter (1977) predicted that the proportion of women and men present in organizations is the crucial factor: With unequal proportions, women (similar to other minority persons) are singled out as “tokens” and gender becomes salient, which has been theorized to have a range of negative consequences. In contrast, if proportions of women and men are similar (i.e., in the presence of gender diversity), gender is not salient, and the work environment becomes much more positive for women. These considerations imply that not only a male majority, but also a female majority at work has negative consequences, because gender becomes salient in both cases. However, empirical research on work environments with female majorities at the top of organizations is scarce. The present study tested the perception of a range of negative consequences, including work-related well-being, among women in leadership positions in Spain who reported a male majority, a female majority, or similar proportions of both genders at the top level of their organization. The online convenience sample consisted of a total of N = 649 women leaders. In addition to work-related well-being, we measured perceived work–family conflict and perceived feelings of guilt associated with work–family conflict, traditional gender stereotypes regarding warmth and competence, women-leadership stereotypes, negative work-related stereotypes of mothers, gender harassment, and stigma consciousness. Almost all of our findings support Kanter’s theorizing that equal proportions of both genders go along with more positive perceptions as compared to a male majority. However, a female majority went along with as negative perceptions as a male majority regarding several of the outcome variables, but was associated with the most positive perceptions for other outcomes. We discuss implications and possible reasons for the latter mixed findings.

“…The focus groups were led by another woman physiotherapist (B.S.-S.), a university professor, who also specialized in women's health and was experienced in qualitative research interviews. She was not connected with the study in order to achieve the appearance of a new perspective [20], and the participants did not know her. All the interviews began with the presentation of the objective of the study, the guarantee of the confidentiality of the contributions and the request for permission to record the audio of the interviews.…”

Conservative treatment of pelvic floor dysfunction (PFD) includes therapeutic exercise for pelvic floor muscle (PFM) training or other complementary exercise modalities, such as hypopressive exercises. However, the long-term effectiveness of the conservative treatment depends on a patient’s adherence to the exercises and the integration of professional health advice into their daily life. The objective of this study was to establish the adherence experience of women with diagnosed PFD in home-based exercises after an intensive face-to-face physiotherapy treatment. A qualitative study from an interpretive paradigm was developed. Semi-structured individual and group interviews were performed 6 months after finishing individual physiotherapy treatment. The interviews were recorded, fully transcribed and analyzed thematically by creating categories. Thirty-one women were interviewed. The women reported that their adherence to home PFM exercises depended on the exercise program itself, its efficacy, their personal experiences with the exercises, intrinsic factors such as self-awareness or beliefs, and extrinsic factors, such as professional or instrumental feedback. Thus, therapeutic adherence could be more likely with effective physiotherapy programs that include mutually agreed home exercises and simple movements women can build into their daily lives. Improving awareness and knowledge of the pelvic region and the importance of PFM treatment as well as consideration for potential worsening of PFD will also encourage women to adhere to the exercises.
