Abstract:
(Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) From 1995 through 2005, I studied nursing among Utah prairie dogs (Cynomys parvidens) living under natural conditions at Bryce Canyon National Park, UT, USA. I observed 850 aboveground nursings, which involved 122 mothers and 248 juveniles from 134 litters. Most of the mothers that nursed aboveground were middleaged, and most nursing juveniles had been coming aboveground for 1–3 weeks. Most nursings involved a single juvenile, lasted 1–10 min, and occurred between 1800 hours and 2000 hours. Seventy-five percent of nursings (598/796) involved a mother suckling her own juvenile offspring; the other 24.9% (198/796) involved a mother suckling another mother's offspring (i.e., communal nursing). Communal nursings involved juveniles of the home territory, and many communal nursings (74/198=37.4%) involved close kin such as half-siblings, grandoffspring, full-nieces, and fullnephews; other communal nursings (37/198=18.7%) involved more distant kin such as full-second cousins and full-third cousins. Of seven hypotheses that might explain the evolution of communal nursing, evidence supports the importance of two: elevated inclusive fitness via indirect selection and communal nursing as a cost of coloniality.

Abstract:
This paper examined the general trend of timing of breastfeeding initiation among nursing mothers in Nigeria. The time of initiating the first breast milk to an infant by his/her mother is measured as whether it is immediate (before the first hour of birth) or delayed (after the first hour of birth), and the impacts of some socioeconomic and maternal factors on this are determined. Results from this study showed that mother’s age at birth, her enhanced educational status, mothers’ domiciling in urban areas, singleton birth, and mother’s frequent antenatal visits among others contributed positively to early initiation of breastfeeding by Nigerian nursing mothers (P<0.05). In the contrary, delivery through caesarean operation, nursing mothers that delivers at homes instead of hospitals, and the current birth being the first from a mother are all found to militate against early initiation of breastfeeding (P<0.05) among others. General results showed that early breastfeeding initiation experience among nursing mothers in Nigeria significantly improves over time between 1990 and 2008 (P<0.05), although following a sinusoidal pattern. Four waves of national data from the Nigerian Demographic and Health Surveys for 1990, 1999, 2003, and 2008 were employed in the study.

Abstract:
Background The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted mothers’ and children's access to essential health services. Concerns about the transmission of COVID-19 to infants resulted in strict procedures, which then caused delays in initial contact and breastfeeding. This delay then impacted the well-being of mothers and babies. Purpose This study aimed to explore the experience of mothers with COVID-19 in breastfeeding. This study was qualitative research with a phenomenological approach. Methods Participants were mothers with a confirmed history of COVID-19 during the breastfeeding period either in 2020, 2021, or 2022. Semi-structured in-depth interviews were conducted with 21 mothers. Data were analyzed using thematic analysis. Results Three themes were obtained: breastfeeding during the mother was confirmed COVID-19, changes in the mother's condition, and social support received by the mother. Based on this theme, it can be seen that mothers are temporarily separated from their newborns, which causes breastfeeding difficulties. Mothers confirmed to have COVID-19 in 2020 and 2021 appear to have more significant concerns about transmitting COVID-19, as indicated by the mother's decision not to breastfeed and to undergo separate isolation with the baby. Conclusion Mothers need support to continue to breastfeed. The benefits obtained from breastfeeding are far more significant than efforts to prevent transmission by separating mother and baby, so mothers should be encouraged to continue breastfeeding.

Abstract:
This research aimed to describe mothers' experiences, analyzing them in the light of the principles of the Kangaroo Mother Method (KMM), and discuss the mothers' contributions based on the meanings of these experiences for nursing actions. In data collection, a questionnaire was used that characterized the mothers' socioeconomic profile and, through focus groups, stories were obtained about the benefits of these experiences, which supported the construction of the following categories: survival and recovery of the baby; the mothers' daily life modified by the KMM and valuation of affective family bonds in the KMM. The experiences are related to increased bonding between mother and baby, reduction of the infant's time of separation from the family, besides leading to increased competition and confidence in the parents to take care of their child, even before discharge, improving the mother's relation with the family, inside the family and with the team that takes care of the baby.

Abstract:
Complementary feeding is the systemic process of introduction of semisolid or solid food in infant at the right time in addition to mother’s milk in order to provide needed nutrition to the baby. A cross sectional study was conducted from January to December, 2020 to assess the level of knowledge and practice of nursing mothers regarding complementary feeding. Total 177 nursing mother were selected purposively and interviewed with a pre-tested semi-structured questionnaire. Face to face interview was conducted to collect data. P-value less than 0.05 were set as statistically significant. The knowledge and practice score were categorized into good (≥70%), satisfactory (50 to 70%), and poor (≤50%). Out of 177 respondents, majority 109(61.6%) had satisfactory knowledge regarding complementary feeding, 33(18.6%) had good knowledge and rest of them 35(19.8%) had poor knowledge regarding complementary feeding among the nursing mother. On the other hand 62.7% respondents had poor Practices, 24.9% had satisfactory practices and 12.4% had good practices regarding complementary feeding among the nursing mothers. There was highly significant association between knowledge and practice of complementary feeding (p <.000). Nursing mother’s knowledge regarding complementary feeding time was inadequate and practices were inappropriate. . It is the responsibility of health professionals to pass on the current information about proper infant feeding to mothers/care takers for promoting the healthy complementary feeding of the breastfeed child.

Abstract:
Breastfeeding provides a number of benefits for both newborns and mothers. In any event, despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary, the occurrence of breast-feeding care has declined sharply. From the mother, bosom milk provides abundant and efficiently swallowed healthy components, cell reinforcements, chemicals, insusceptible characteristics, and living antibodies. Breastfeeding provides a number of advantages for both newborns and moms. Despite significant evidence to the contrary, breast-prevalence feeding's has remained low across the world. The goal of this study was to see how a mother's education affected her children, socioeconomic position, and employment on the length of time she breastfed her child. The current study was conducted in Delhi to determine the impact of a mother's education, employment, and socioeconomic level Breast-feeding duration in urban and rural nursing moms. A total of 200 breastfeeding mothers from the city and 200 lactating mothers from the countryside were considered for the study. A purposeful random inspection of data technique is used and collected directly from mothers occupying a tailored survey to assess the impact of the mother's education, employment, and socioeconomic level on the length of breast feeding. Following the data collection, the data will be properly categorized and organized under numerous headings. Information and attitude were used to code. Following that, the content and quantifiable research was completed using percentages.

Abstract:
Background: Mother's milk is the best natural food a mother can give to her baby. Breastfeeding is influenced by age; the younger the mother's age, the more breastfeeding tends to become smaller. Consistent milk production and a sense of confidence in breastfeeding are essential to the success of exclusive milk delivery. Hypnopressure is one of the methods that can enhance and maintain milk production and breastfeeding confidence. Objectives: The purpose is to report the provision of nursing care based on evidence-based on the problem of smooth breastfeeding and breastfeeding self-efficacy in teenage mothers. Methods: Case studies by implementing evidence-based practice in nursing care. The study was conducted on two teenage breastfeeding mothers who had problems with breastfeeding fluency and breastfeeding self-efficacy. Results: The primary outcome of this study will be the effect of the intervention on breastmilk production and breastfeeding confidence in teenage mothers. We conclude that hypnopressure could improve breastmilk production (92,8% and 85,7%) and breastfeeding confidence (55 and 57) Conclusion: Implementing evidence-based practice related to hypnopressure can smooth breastfeeding and improve its effectiveness in adolescent mothers.

Abstract:
Breastfeeding is a very precious time for a mother who has just given birth to her baby. Where at this time, the mother gives breast milk which is called a golden liquid to the baby. Breast milk is the optimal nutrition for babies at the beginning of their life. However, in the process of breastfeeding, mothers often feel anxious and not confident that they can breastfeed their babies well and can provide enough breast milk for their babies' nourishment and growth. Peace of mind and feelings can affect the process of milk production. Hypnobreastfeeding is one of the techniques to help mothers to feel calm, comfortable, relaxed, and happy while breastfeeding. Giving positive affirmative sentences about Hypnobreastfeeding can help reduce anxiety and increasing the mother's sense of self-worth will help the nursing process go more easily. This study aims to explain how hypnobreastfeeding is used in nursing mothers. The method used is a literature review by utilizing Google Scholar and PubMed data. The results of a literature search found that Hypnobreastfeeding is beneficial for breastfeeding mothers. Hypnobreastffeding can overcome anxiety, increase motivation and confidence in mothers, and can increase breast milk production.

Full text
Abstract:
The mother-child relationship is a key determinant of child health. Current evidence acknowledges that impaired mother-child interaction affects social, emotional, cognitive and behavioural development in infants. Disrupted interaction within the mother-child dyad can be caused by a variety of factors including prolonged separation, illness, abusive relationships, maternal stress and other psychosocial disturbances. Post-Partum Depression (PPD), in particular, compromises mother-child interaction. Despite the fact that recent studies have demonstrated that the prevalence of PPD in low-income communities is approximately three times that found in first world countries, mother-child interaction is seldom evaluated and facilitated in primary care. Physical growth is often the only measure of infant health and development. The objectives of this qualitative study were to explore the mother's description of mother-child interaction; the importance that the mother ascribes to this interaction; and the mother's perception of the factors which facilitated interaction within the mother-child dyad. First-time mothers were purposively sampled and semi-structured interviews were conducted. After general inductive analysis of the verbatim transcriptions of the interviews, five main themes emerged. These were: (2)"What I expected" which described expectations around the birth and the impact on mother-child interaction, (2) "Isn't one supposed to feel ... ?" explored the mothers concerns regarding interaction, emotions and adaptation, (3) "Connecting with my baby" described a process of physical connectedness which enhanced emotional connectedness, (4)"We reflect each other's feelings " illustrated how feelings are echoed between mother and baby and empathy developed, and (5) "That helped/hindered our interaction " described factors which eased the fluency of mother-child interaction. These findings are discussed in relation to neuro-scientific developmental theories; namely Porges' Polyvagal Theory of subconscious adaptation for social behaviour and security strategies, and The Mirror Neuron Theory which describes mechanisms of imitation and the development of empathy. Factors which enhanced mother-child interaction are discussed within the context of a changing society. The findings suggest the potential value of including the facilitation of mother-child interaction in the practice of health professionals, particularly midwives and other workers in maternal and child health. This may include training in non-directive counselling of mothers, the recognition of disengaged mother-child interaction, and relationship facilitation. This study emphasizes the importance of mother-child interaction and that health professionals need to be aware of the potential for maternal mental health problems after birth, and the long-term consequences of poor mother-child interaction on infant health.

Abstract:
While there is evidence that the interactions that occur in the early years of life between very-low-birthweight (VLBW) infants and their mothers affects later child development, little is known about the factors that are associated with responsive and sensitive mother-VLBW infant interaction. Belsky's (1984) model of the determinants of parenting proposes that multiple child, parent, and contextual factors influence parenting behaviour. This prospective study examined the combined influence of a set of infant (i.e., birthweight and perinatal illness severity), mother (i.e., state anxiety and parenting sense of competence), and contextual variables (i.e., maternal received and perceived helpfulness of support, and marital adjustment) on mother-infant interaction, and assessed which factors were associated with sensitive and responsive interaction.<br>The participants were 72 mothers and their VLBW infants (<1500 grams). Infant, mother, and contextual variables were assessed at 3- and 9-months of age (corrected). At 9 months, mother-infant teaching interactions were observed in the home and later coded using the Nursing Child Assessment Teaching Scale (NCATS).<br>Hierarchical multiple regression analyses were used to examine the relationship between mother-infant interaction and the infant, mother and contextual variables. The prospective model explained 33% of the variance in the interactive behaviour of the dyad. Dyads whose interaction was more sensitive and responsive at 9 months included mothers who were better-educated, less anxious at 3 months, and reported higher perceived support at 3 months. The concurrent model explained 29% of the variance in the interactive behaviour of the dyad. Dyads whose interaction was more sensitive and responsive included mothers who were better-educated and reported higher perceived support at 9 months. The hypothesis that the mother variables would be more important than the contextual variables in explaining mother-infant interaction was not supported. The findings highlight the importance of examining multiple infant, parent, and contextual variables to explain mother-VLBW infant interaction.

Full text
Abstract:
<p> Breastfeeding has been identified as the perfect source of infant nutrition. Improving the rates and duration of breastfeeding is a global public health concern. Even though facilitators and barriers to successful breastfeeding have been identified in the literature, rates of breastfeeding fall below desired targets. Maternal characteristics such as body image and eating attitudes have been examined with respect to pregnancy and birth outcomes, yet have been less studied with respect to infant feeding choice. Based on existing literature it is possible that poor body image and /or disordered eating may affect the intention to breastfeed. The purpose of this study was to compare body image, eating attitudes, and breastfeeding intention of breastfeeding to non-breastfeeding mothers. A secondary aim was to determine if breastfeeding intention, body image, and/or eating attitudes predicted actual behavior. A two group, comparative design was used to analyze data for first time mothers (n = 66) recruited through a large pediatric practice with multiple offices. Instruments included the 34 item self-report Multidimensional Body Self Relations Questionnaire-Appearance Scales (MBSRQ-AS), the Eating Attitudes Test (EAT-26), and items from a Demographic and History form. Data analysis revealed that there was no significant difference in the body image or eating attitudes between breastfeeding and non-breastfeeding mothers. Breastfeeding intention was a strong determinant of actual breastfeeding (p = 0.001). Neither body image and/or eating attitudes predicted infant feeding method. It has been well established that personal and contextual factors affect breastfeeding intention. As a result, body image and eating attitudes can have an impact on a woman's health during childbearing. The present study highlights the need for improved instruments designed for pregnant and lactating women that measure the cognitive and behavioral aspects of body image. Subsequently, women who display disordered eating tendencies or body image dissatisfaction during the perinatal period can be identified.</p>

Abstract:
Objective: The objective of this study was to explore the lived childbirth experiences of middle adolescent mothers between 14 and 16 years of age. Methodology: A qualitative design was followed, using Husserl's phenomenological approach. Information was gathered by semi-structured conversations. Identified themes and sub-themes (Colaizzi's steps) were presented to participants for authentication during follow-up conversations. Study Setting: Two hospitals in the Cape Town Metropolitan area, Western Cape, South Africa. Participants: Six adolescent girls between the ages of 14 and 16 years of age who had normal vaginal births of healthy, term infants. Findings: An over-arching theme of preservation of personhood was identified. Themes and sub-themes were derived according to three Husserlian phenomenological concepts. Within these concepts three essential themes emerged from the conversations: i) essences: physically underdeveloped and emotionally unprepared for childbirth, ii) intentionality and consciousness: an unsettled state of mind during childbirth, and iii) life-world: feeling physically and emotionally overwhelmed by the experience. Conclusion: The participants highly valued the presence of a support person; they indicated that their mothers were their first choice. Friendly, helpful, respectful and non-judgmental care from nurses and midwives were associated with more positive birth experiences while humiliation, victimisation and rudeness were associated with negative birth experiences. Implications for adolescent-friendly practice: A condensed form of antenatal education is needed together with adolescent-friendly health care services to ensure better preparedness and experiences. Shared-decision making regarding certain aspects of childbirth is necessary. Continuous labour support is an important coping strategy and pain management is vital. Additional training is needed to address midwives' attitudes. Quality assessment tools are needed to address the mistreatment of maternity patients in health care facilities.

Abstract:
The provision of contraceptive services has been identified as one of the most important developments in primary care. Although the history ofthe birth control movement is well documented, the contribution made to the provision ofservices by nurses and midwives and the actual development oftheir role, is conspicuous by its absence. Similarly, the history ofnursing has tended to ignore the work ofthose at the 'sharp' end ofpractice. This thesis addresses both lacunae by investigating the work of the J • ~ • midwife-nurses in the Marie StopeS' Mothers' Clinics; focusing on the London and the Caravan Clinics between 1921 and 1931. The aims 0 f the study were; to trace the historical development of birth control nursing within the Marie Stopes Mothers' Clinic locating it in its social, political, medical, professional and legal.contexts; to determine the lay and medical perspectives which influenced the development ofbirth control nursing within the Marie Stopes Mothers' Clinics. This historical study uses primary archival and secondary sources supplementedby a modified prosopographical technique and oral history interviews, to provide a distinctive record of the role undertaken by the midwife-nurses in the first birth control clinic in Britain. The role ofthe midwife-nurses was unique, providing what was arguably the first nurseled birth control service in this country. In exploring the expansion ofthe service, the thesis exposes previously unexplored links between Lamberts, a commercial organisation, Abertillery Hospital and the Stopes' clinics. An exploration of the planning and development of the Caravan Clinics uncovers the way in which the service operated and the difficult conditions experienced by the midwife-nurses. Three issues of relevance to the history of nursing and contemporary practice are also revealed; the way in which the role was established: how the training for nurses working in the field of contraception and sexual health evolved; and the identification ofthe roots ofsexual health outreach services. The consequences of a disagreement between Stopes and the National Birth Control Council (NBCC) produced two distinct approaches to the delivery of care and the role of the staff. The traditional handmaiden approach continued in dinics under the auspices ofthe NBCC. The use of the speculum acted as a means to maintain the dominance of the medical profession, a situation that continued well into the 1990s. The thesis argues that had Stopes and her organisation remained within the amalgamated organisation, she may have inculcated her nurse-led approach into the work of these other clinics, with a subsequent impact on the role and training of nurses and midwives throughout the ensuing decades. Studying this group of midwife-nurses provides insight into the realities of clinical practice within what was, at the time, a controversial area ofpractice. The study has contributed to a wider appreciation of the history of both nursing and birth control while also revealing the links to contemporary clinical practice in the field of sexual health.

Full text
Abstract:
Research has shown that infant feeding practices differ between cultures. A convenience sample of 51 first generation Cuban mothers with infants birth to 12 months of age were surveyed to identify their infant feeding practices, and why they introduce foods to their infants in the manner in which they do. Data obtained from the mothers' responses to an English/Spanish Questionnaire were summarized by frequencies. Findings revealed that Cuban mothers consider a variety of foods from the major four food groups to be suitable for their infants. They introduced solids to their infants at the average age of four months and fed their infants in the manner in which they did because they thought it was healthy/nutritious. Cuban mothers may feed their infants as taught by health care professionals if their infant feeding practices are incorporated in the culture specific infant feeding programmes developed by the health team.

Abstract:
Purpose: The purpose of this review is to assess maternal explanations for early breastfeeding cessation in economically developed countries. Study Design and Methods: The electromic databases EBSCO, CINAHL, Child Development & Adolescent Studies, PsycInfo, Health Source: Nursing/Academic Edition, Nursing and Allied Health; ProQuest databases: Family Health Database, Health and Medical Collection, Nursing and Allied Health, Psychology Database, and Public Health Databases were searched using the terms breastfeeding, cessation, stop, discontinuation, early weaning, quit∗, early termination, and six months. Inclusion criteria included infants born at least 37 weeks gestation, single birth, and infant birthweight > 2,500 g. Results: Initial literature search yielded 117 studies; 10 studies met inclusion criteria. The two most common reasons for early breastfeeding cessation were perceived inadequate milk supply and maternal breast or nipple pain. Conclusion: Research on maternal reasons for early breastfeeding cessation is limited. Reasons for early breastfeeding cessation are varied; however, the most common themes were perceived inadequate supply and breast or nipple pain. Nurses should tailor assessment of each breastfeeding mother-baby couplet and associated interventions based on these findings.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Background: Woman who become mother have gone through various life cycles, from pregnancy till childbirth. During this postpartum period, almost all mothers also breastfeed their babies. The process of restoring the body health after childbirth along with caring for the baby often leaves the mother physically and psychologically exhausted. So many mothers cannot provide exclusive breastfeeding. This is where the husband’s role is very important to provide support to the mother. This study aimed to analyze the influence husband’s role on the mother’s interest in giving exclusive breastfeeding. Subjects and Method: A cross-sectional study was conducted for 2 months on 46 postpartum mothers. This study conducted in Wonokromo, Surabaya, in 2020. The independent variable was the husband’s role and the dependent variable was the mother’s interest in giving exclusive breastfeeding. The data were collected using questionnaires and analyzed using Chi Square test. Results: The results showed that out of 21 (57.14%) mothers who had less husband’s role, most had a low interest in giving exclusive breastfeeding. Of the 25 mothers who have a good husband’s role, almost all (92%) have a high interest in exclusive breastfeeding (p&lt; 0.001), and it was statistically significant. Conclusion: The better husband’s role in supporting his wife, the higher the mother’s interest in giving exclusive breastfeeding. Keywords: husband role, mother, exclusive breastfeeding Correspondence: Yunik Windarti. Faculty of Nursing and Midwifery, Universitas Nahdlatul Ulama Surabaya, East Java. Jl.

Abstract:
Objectives. To assess the impact of implementation strategies for mental health and substance use screening and counseling for children and adolescents in primary care as recommended by the United States Preventive Services Task Force and Bright Futures Periodicity Schedule. Data sources. PubMed®, PsycInfo®, Cochrane Library, and the Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature®, as well as gray literature sources, reference lists, and technical experts. Review methods. We followed the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality Methods Guide for Effectiveness and Comparative Effectiveness Reviews, adapting it with classifications from the Expert Recommendations for Implementing Change (ERIC) and the Effective Practice and Organisation of Care (EPOC) taxonomies. We searched for studies published from January 1, 2010, through July 26, 2024, and selected studies that compared strategies for implementing mental health and substance use screening and counseling interventions for children and adolescents in primary care with another implementation strategy or no strategy. We evaluated randomized and nonrandomized controlled trials and interrupted time series studies. Studies conducted outside the United States were evaluated separately. Results. We included 11 studies from the United States and 2 from other countries. Studies focused on screening and counseling for depression and suicide risk, eating disorders, substance use disorders, and general behavioral health risk factors. Implementation approaches were multifaceted and consisted of learning collaboratives, providing support to clinicians, adding new team members to incorporate behavioral health into primary care, and using technology. Overall, our confidence in the available evidence was limited, with numerous outcomes receiving a very low strength of evidence rating. When compared to clinical interventions where only minimal or no strategies were employed, the use of implementation strategies consistently resulted in higher screening rates and increased initiation of treatments. Few studies assessed patient outcomes, and clinician support neither reduced risk behaviors nor increased referrals for specialty substance use treatment. Different types of implementation approaches appeared to have comparable effectiveness. The evidence on the impact of implementation strategies on inequities in the delivery of recommended interventions for populations at risk for disparities was limited to a single study focused on clinician support for screening for depression and suicide risk, and yielded very low strength of evidence. We did not identify any studies on implementation of screening for anxiety or maternal depression among teenage mothers. Furthermore, none of the included studies assessed the acceptability or feasibility of the implementation approaches utilized, nor were patients’ quality of life or adverse events assessed. Conclusions. The identified implementation approaches may increase screening and brief interventions. The evidence, however, is uncertain. Different types of implementation strategies appear to have comparable effectiveness.
