“…In addition, previous studies also detected that MFA intensity may be affected by factors such as maternal age ( Čėsnaitė et al, 2019;McNamara et al, 2019). Pregnant women who were younger than 20 years shows the lowest levels of prenatal attachment compared to women who were older (Ossa et al, 2012;Canlı and Demirtaş, 2022). It may be that younger women may experience ambiguous and mixed feelings about the physical and psychological changes during pregnancy and may not feel ready to be mothers (Crozier et al, 2009;Wilson-Mitchell et al, 2014), all of which may blunt their prenatal attachment levels.…”

Maternal-Fetal Attachment (MFA) delineates the emotional, cognitive, and behavioral aspects that mothers develop toward the unborn baby during pregnancy. The literature indicates that optimal attachment in pregnancy represents a protective factor for the mother-child attachment bond after birth and child development outcomes. To date, there are few studies that have investigated associated factors of MFA. This study sets out to explore the association between perceived parental bonds and maternal-fetal bonding in pregnant women, accounting for factors such as psychological distress, socio-demographic and obstetric characteristics.MethodsIn this cross-sectional study, 1,177 pregnant women answered the Parental Bonding Instrument, the Maternal-Fetal Attachment Scale, State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI-Y), and Beck-Depression Inventory (BDI-II).ResultsWe found out that perceived maternal and paternal care had significant direct effects on maternal-infant bonding during the pregnancy period when controlling for some confounders, including gestational age and mother age among others. Such maternal and paternal perceived care effects were not mediated by levels of psychological distress, which in turn resulted to be a “borderline” significant predictor of prenatal attachment. Interestingly, the gestational age and the mother age emerged to have a significant and synergic nonlinear effect, suggesting the influence on the MFAS of the gestational age depends on the values of the mother age, and likewise, the effect of mother age on MFAS depends on the gestational week.ConclusionThis study expands our knowledge of the intergenerational transmission of attachment pointing out the effects of a woman’s perceived bond in relation to her parental figures during the development of the prenatal attachment process. Findings also suggests that parenting support interventions may have benefits that are realized across generations.

“…Socio-demographic and obstetric characteristics affect prenatal attachment (Canlı & Demirtaş, 2021) It has been reported in the studies that prenatal attachment decreases as maternal age increases (Daglar & Nur, 2018;Damato, 2004;Potur et al, 2020). In the study by Dağlar et al, it was determined that the attachment levels of mothers aged 35 and above were higher than those under 35 years of age.…”

Introduction and Aim: To compare anxiety and attachment levels besides obstetric and sociodemographic characteristics between late term and non-late term pregnants. Methods: This cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted on 49 pregnant women who were over 41 weeks of pregnancy as late-term pregnancy group and 67 pregnant women who were 37-41 weeks of pregnancy were included in the study as control group. Data were collected using demographic and obstetrics data form, Pregnancy-Related Anxiety Questionnaire-Revised-2, and prenatal attachment scale. Results: The prenatal attachment scale median score of late term pregnant women was 68 (39-81) and the anxiety scale median score was 28 (13-55). The median score of the prenatal attachment scale for may not affect the non-late term pregnant women was 64 (30-84), and the median score of the anxiety scale was 26 (11-43). There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in terms of scale scores (p>0.05). Conclusions: It was found that prenatal attachment and anxiety levels were not affected by the late term state of pregnant women in our study. In the presence of other conditions that positively affect attachment, although late term pregnancy is risky, it did not have an effect on attachment and anxiety.
