Filter by:Aim: This study aimed to determine the effect of relactation support program on milk release, mother-infant attachment and maternity role. Materials and Methods: This single-group pre-test post-test experimental study was conducted with 34 mothers who had 1-4 month old infants, stopped breastfeeding at least 15 days and at most 3 months ago and were registered in the family health centers of a province in the southern Turkey. The relactation support program was completed in 15 days, with eight home visits and seven telephone support sessions. The data were collected using a personal information form, a mother-infant follow-up form, the Maternal Attachment Inventory (MAI) and the Barkin Index of Maternal Functioning (BIMF). Keywords: Mother-Infant Attachment, Maternity Role, Midwifery, Relactation, Milk Release.
The aim of this study is to examine the effects of yoga on the stress of mothers with babies with sleep and feeding problems, the mother-infant relationship, and the sleep and nutrition of the mother and the baby. 55 mothers with babies with sleep and feeding problems were included in the study. Mothers were randomly divided into two groups: yoga (n=29) and control group (n=26). Yoga training was applied to 29 mothers in the study group via video conferencing, 2 days a week, 1 hour a day for 8 weeks, while the mothers in the control group were given second evaluations 8 weeks after the first evaluation, without any intervention. Mothers were evaluated with the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS) for stress levels, with Parent-Child Containing Function Scale for the mother-infant relationship, with the Infancy and Early Childhood Feeding Process Mother'sAttitudes Scale for their attitudes towards the feeding process of their babies, and with Attitude Scale for Healthy Nutrition (ASHN) for their own nutrition attitudes, with Pittsburg Sleep Quality (PSQI) for sleep quality and babies with Infancy Period Adaptive Eating Behavior Scale for feeding problems, with Brief Infant/Child Sleep Questionnaire (BISQ) for sleep problems.
The aim of this study is to determine the effect of breastfeeding education and humor-based practices in the antenatal period on breastfeeding motivation and attachment. 32-36 patients who applied to Bartın Gynecology and Children's Hospital for the project. It will consist of 64 pregnant women (32 experimental and 32 control group) at gestational week. Pregnant women who agree to participate in the project between these months will receive 30-45 minutes of humor practice after 30 minutes of breastfeeding training in the first session. The education and humor application will be implemented again a week later, on the same day, at the same time and in the same place. In the humor application, dance performances, applause, singing and laughter accompanied by 5 songs determined by the researchers will be included. The training program prepared for breastfeeding education will be applied to pregnant women. Then, humor will be applied. A pre-test will be administered before the training, a mid-test 1 month after the training, and a post-test in the 3rd month. Project data will be collected using the 'Introductory Information Form', 'Breastfeeding Motivation Scale' and 'Maternal Attachment Scale'.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of the mother's active pushing during cesarean delivery.
This study extends follow up on of Native American (NA) mothers and their children (now age 3-5 years) enrolled in the 1:1 randomized controlled trial of the Family Spirit Nurture (FSN) intervention designed to prevent early childhood obesity (PECO 1). The investigators will examine whether positive FSN impacts on sugar sweetened beverage (SSB) consumption and healthy growth in the first year of life were sustained. The investigators will also examine the effects of the emergency COVID-19 water solutions on water insecurity, early childhood SSB consumption, and growth, and explore how COVID-19 affected child feeding patterns and weight status either through changes in maternal mental health or household food access.
The proposed study will be a randomized pilot study. Family Spirit home-visiting sites from the Inter-Tribal Council of Michigan (ITC of MI) will be selected based on comparability and randomized to provide either standard Family Spirit or precision Family Spirit to their clients. Sites in both groups will use an electronic platform to support implementation. The investigators will select four sites and randomize two of them to standard Family Spirit and two to precision Family Spirit. Sites will be matched based on annual volume of clients served and geographic similarity (i.e. urban vs. rural). All participating sites will be trained in the electronic implementation support platform. The two sites randomized to provide the precision approach will receive additional training on how to provide it. In each site, all new clients who are prenatal or up to 2-months postpartum will be offered participation in the study. The study will then follow them until 12 months postpartum and measure outcomes during this time (see measurement table below). Qualitative interviews with precision participants will be done at 6 and 12 months postpartum. Focus group discussions with home visitors will also be completed during regular study team meetings. Analysis of study instruments (basic psychometrics based on baseline and end line data) and preliminary differences between the sites on Aim 3 and 4 outcomes will be done in December 2019 assuming the investigators have achieved their estimated sample size with enough retention for 6-months post enrollment. Dissemination of results will be done upon completion of the analysis.
This study aims to assess the impact of a home-visiting program, called "Family Spirit Nurture" (FSN), on reducing early childhood obesity in American Indian (AI) children. The FSN intervention targets parent feeding practices, young children's diet and physical activity (PA) and early childhood (0-2 years of age) weight status, all associated with risk for early childhood obesity and, consequently, risk for obesity over the life course. The investigators will also explore whether maternal psychosocial factors (stress, depression and substance use), household food/water security and/or constrained physical activity environments moderate FSN intervention impacts on: mother's feeding behaviors for infants and toddlers; and, children's diets, PA patterns, and weight status. Finally, the investigators will examine how maternal/infant characteristics, diet and behaviors impact the underlying biologic mechanisms of early childhood obesity and whether social and behavioral interventions can impact infant metabolic health. The investigators evaluation will employ a randomized controlled design, in which both the intervention and comparison condition receive assisted transportation to prenatal and well-baby visits (called "Optimized Standard Care"), and the comparison condition also receives potentially beneficial injury prevention education at 8 assessment visits. Primary Aims: Efficacy of Family Spirit Nurture (FSN) + Optimized Standard Care (OSC) versus Injury Prevention Education (IPE) + OSC will be assessed for each of the following from birth to 24 months postpartum: Aim 1. Mothers' implementation of recommended feeding behaviors. Hypothesis 1. FSN + OSC mothers will be more likely to meet breastfeeding and complementary feeding recommendations and engage in responsive parenting/feeding behaviors compared to IPE + OSC mothers. Aim 2. Children's consumption of healthy diet and physical activity engagement. Hypothesis 2. FSN + OSC children will consume more fruits and vegetables and fewer calories from sugar sweetened beverages (SSB), snacks and desserts, and they will have higher physical activity and reduced screen time/other sedentary activities compared to IPE + OSC children. Aim 3. Children's weight status. Hypothesis 3. Mean BMI z-scores for FSN + OSC children will be closer to zero (the mean age- and sex- specific BMI z-score for the World Health Organization standard reference population) compared to IPE + OSC children.
This is the fourth birth cohort to be carried out in the city of Pelotas (Brazil) including more than 4 thousand children followed-up since the pre-natal period to study maternal-child health.
Prior to the HAS recommendations of March 2014, the "mother - newborn" couple was discharged from the maternity home at 4 days after delivery by AVB and 5 days after caesarean section. The stay in maternity allowed a follow-up of the newborn whose weight gain and the occurrence of a jaundice; And monitoring of the mother whose milky ascent and psychological feelings. In March 2014, the HAS published new recommendations on maternity leave arrangements for the "mother - newborn" couple, the organization of postpartum follow - up for the mother and pediatric follow - up for the newborn. The HAS then defines so-called "optimal" conditions for so-called "standard" outputs, with 9 criteria to respect respectively for the mother and the newborn. If the mother-to-newborn couple respects these so-called optimal conditions and is eligible according to the respective criteria, the latter leaves at home after 72 hours and before 96 hours for an AVB and after 96 completed hours and Before 120 hours for caesarean delivery. As no pediatric discharge was done in the afternoons at the maternity hospital of Amiens, an arbitrary choice was made to allow a "standard" release to the "mother-newborn" couple only if the child was born between 00H00 and 11H59 so that his clinical examination of exit is carried out at 72 hours of the birth as recommended by the recommendations of the HAS. These recommendations being recent (2014), no study has studied the impact and consequences on the triad "father / mother-newborn" of these exits including the occurrence of possible complications or events: re-hospitalizations again The early termination of breastfeeding, and whether the follow-up procedures advocated by the HAS are being followed.
This study aims to assess the impact of a brief home-visiting module, called "Family Spirit Nurture" (FSN), on American Indian (AI) parent feeding practices associated with increased risk for early childhood obesity, with a primary focus on delaying introduction of infants' Sugar Sweetened Beverage (SSB) (including soda, energy drinks, juice with added sugar and other drinks with added sugar) intake while teaching mothers complementary feeding and responsive parenting practices. The investigators will also assess how water insecurity may moderate parents' feeding of SSBs to young children. Finally, the investigators will explore whether maternal knowledge of oral health practices and/or reduction of infants' SSB intake influences early indicators of infant's oral health (i.e., infants' oral microbiome and plaque formation). Our evaluation will employ a randomized controlled design, in which the control condition receives a beneficial home-safety educational model and assistance in safety proofing their homes for small children. Assessments in both groups will occur at baseline (between 6 and 10 weeks postpartum) and 4 months, 6 months, 9 months and 12 months postpartum. Primary Aims: Aim 1: To determine the effectiveness of the brief (6 lessons) FSN home-visiting parent feeding practice module on reducing SSB initiation and frequency among infants between 3 and 12 months of age. Hypothesis 1: Infants whose mothers receive FSN vs. controls will be less likely to introduce SSBs between 3 and 12 months of age. Aim 2: To determine the effectiveness of FSN to promote optimal complementary feeding and responsive parenting practices. Hypothesis 2: Mothers who receive FSN vs. controls will be more likely to practice recommended complementary feeding and responsive parenting practices between 3 and 12 months of age. Aim 3: To determine the impact of water insecurity on SSB consumption among infants between 3 and 6 months of age. Hypothesis 2: Parents who report water insecurity vs. those who do not will be more likely to give infants SSBs between 3 and 6 months of age. Secondary Aims: Secondary Aim 1: To explore if provision of water to families reduces SSB intake among mothers and infants ages 6 to 9 months of age. Secondary Aim 2: To explore if infants in the FSN intervention have better oral health outcomes than control infants up to 12 months postpartum.
