Abstract:

BackgroundDespite growing interest in men's perinatal mental health, we still know little about whether becoming a new father is associated with increases in psychological distress.AimsTo use prospective longitudinal data to investigate whether becoming a first-time expectant (partner pregnant) and/or new father (child <1 year) is associated with increases in depression and anxiety.MethodMen were aged 20–24 years at baseline (n = 1162). Levels of depression and anxiety were measured at four time points over 12 years. Over this time, 88 men were expectant fathers, 108 men were new fathers an

Abstract:

<em>Pregnancy and its termination known as abortion has become a perennial topic of discourse. This has brought up several controversial issues, such as the rights of the expectant father in the abortion process which has been downplayed in virtually all jurisdictions. This has raised several questions in this research, for instance: should a pregnant woman be allowed and given the right to terminate the pregnancy without considering the interest of the expectant father? Using library-based approach which is doctrinal in nature, this article examined rights of the expectant father in abortion

Abstract:

How expectant fathers think and feel about the unborn child (prenatal representations), has shown associations with fathers’ postnatal parenting behaviors, observed father–infant interactional quality and child cognitive development. There is limited knowledge about fathers’ prenatal representations. The present study examined if fathers’ partner-related attachment styles were related to their prenatal representations of the unborn child. In the “Little in Norway Study”, an ongoing prospective, longitudinal population-based study, 396 expectant fathers completed the Experiences in Close Relati

Abstract:

   Fatherhood is a rite of passage that is a silent transition for many men. The birth of a child also creates the birth of a father and a lifetime commitment. Expectant and new fathers' needs are often not recognised or understood. These "blind spots" can potentially place numerous relationships at risk. This paper will look at the common issues that expectant and new fathers identify as concerns. Research will be presented that highlights the supports needed to enhance fathering awareness and confidence.

Abstract:

Emerging fathers experience a variety of stressors, including identity and role transitions, changes in their relationships, and challenges in developing caregiving skills. Increasing expectations for father involvement in childcare are emphasizing the importance of the father role, but social supports for new fathers remain scarce. Nineteen expectant and new fathers participated in a pilot 5-week group intervention aimed at improving stress coping and involvement attitudes using a combination of mindfulness practices and skill-building for parenting and partner communication. We administered

Abstract:

AbstractDespite the significant health benefits of breastfeeding for the mother and the infant, economic class and race disparities in breastfeeding rates persist. Support for breastfeeding from the father of the infant is associated with higher rates of breastfeeding initiation. However, little is known about the factors that may promote or deter father support of breastfeeding, especially in fathers exposed to contextual adversity such as poverty and violence. Using a mixed methods approach, the primary aims of the current work were to (1) elicit, using qualitative methodology, the worries,

Abstract:

AIMThere are very few studies examining how the prenatal attachment of the father to the fetus affects father–infant attachment, while there are numerous studies on maternal–fetal, maternal–infant attachment. The pregnancy period is a potential opportunity to increase the paternal attachment of fathers whose wives are expecting a baby. The aim of this study was to determine paternal–fetal attachment and the factors with an effect.METHODSThe sample group of this descriptive (comparative) study consisted of expectant fathers accompanied by their wives at 24–36 weeks of pregnancy (n = 182).

Abstract:

The purpose of this study was to explore and describe the use of television for providing guidance to expectant fathers by determining whether or not the medium of television can be implemented to offer parent guidance to expectant fathers during the transition into fatherhood. Focus was therefore placed on gaining an understanding of the specific type of information required by expectant fathers, in conjunction with their perceptions of the most suitable form of media to provide such guidance. The study was conducted in terms of an INTERPRETIVIST-positivist paradigm and followed a mixed metho

If she is a middle class U.S. high school student, she might stay unmarried and attend a special class for expectant mothers.

Discarding artificial boundaries between public and private, this chapter sheds further light on Lula the “good boy” as he was trained by Vidal while exploring how the twenty-six-year

At twelve in London, his father imprisoned for debt, he had to fend for himself at a blacking warehouse. When the debts were compounded, Dickens had some further schooling. He then started publishing sketches of urban working-class life. Christmas entails remembering the dead, celebrating the living with a feast, and reuniting with strays.

Maternal health and well-being is an important public health issue, of which mental health is a key component. Data shows that while most new and expectant mothers report good mental health and high life satisfaction, experiences of postpartum depression (PPD) and anxiety are common in Canada. Research shows that PPD and poor mental health are detrimental to the well-being of mothers and can, if left untreated, adversely affect infant development (e.g. low birth weight, preterm birth, increased risk of mental health problems in the child later in life), as well as leave partners and other fami
