“…Also healthcare professionals may normalize feelings of these women by stating that it is common to feel the emotional ups and downs during the transition period and develop certain strategies to become successful in the new maternal role. These women should be helped to accept their conflicting feelings about the new motherhood and understand that expressing their struggle verbally will not reduce their feeling of gratitude for the gift of motherhood (Ladores and Aroian, 2015). Findings concerning tendency of the couples to silence their negative or ambivalence feelings about pregnancy should be a source of concern for the healthcare professionals.…”

“…Nurses working at the obstetrics units play critical role in determination of women who may be under the risk of postnatal adjustment disorder by means of their relation of trust with this vulnerable woman group. Furthermore, women who conceive through infertility treatment should be dealt with as a special group for breastfeeding treatment because of the unique meaning of breastfeeding for them (Ladores and Aroian, 2015). Moreover, willingness and competence of these women for getting involved in the baby care should be thoroughly evaluated (Chen et al 2011).…”

Özİnfertilite nedeniyle bir bebeğe sahip olabilmek için çiftler çoğunlukla yardımcı üreme tedavilerine başvurmaktadır. Gebelik gerçekleştiği durumlarda, çiftler için gebeliğin anlamı mutlu ve keyifli bir süreç olsa da, infertilite tanısı ve tedavilerinin getirdiği yükle birlikte zorlu bir sürece dönüşebilmektedir. Özellikle kadınlar bu süreçte gebeliği kabullenememe, bebeğini kaybetme korkusu, bebeğin sağlığı konusunda endişelenme, belirsizlik gibi duygular yaşayabilmektedirler. İnfertilite tedavisi sonrası gebe kalan kadınların spontan gebeler arasında göz ardı edilebildiği bilinmektedir. Uluslararası literatürde niteliksel çalışmalarda yardımcı üreme tedavileri ile gebe kalan kadınların gebeliğe ve doğum sonu döneme kolayca uyum sağlamadığını göstermektedir. Bu derleme ile, infertilite tedavisi sonrası gebe kalan kadınların anne olma sürecinki deneyimleri kuramsal olarak incelenmiş ve analiz edilmiştir. AbstractIn order to have a baby due to infertility, couples often resort to assisted reproduction therapy. In cases of pregnancy, even if the meaning of pregnancy is a happy and enjoyable process for these couples, the burden of infertility diagnosis and treatments can turn into a challenging process. Especially women can experience emotions such as not accepting pregnancy, fear of losing their baby, worrying about their health, uncertainty. It is known that pregnant women after infertility treatment can be ignored among spontaneous pregnancies. In qualitative studies at international literature, pregnant women with assisted reproductive treatments do not easily adjust to gestation and postpartum period. With this review, the experiences of the mother who became pregnant after infertility treatment were reviewed and analyzed theoretically.

Fostpartum period is a very important process for parents and babies. Especially parents with special conditions (disability, infertility, abnormal infant, unintended pregnancy, multiple pregnancy) have difficulty in adapting to the postnatal period. While adaptation of disabled parents to postpartum period may be prolonged, postpartum depression may be observed in infertile parents in postpartum period and parents with an abnormal infant may experience post-traumatic stress. Parents who have babies as a result of unintended pregnancy; reactions just like anger, frustration, not wanting the baby can be seen, postpartum psychological and social support are needed in multiple pregnancies. This review was prepared to raise an awareness for midwives and nurses about the adaptation processes of the parents with special conditions.
