Q

maternal adaptation (5 phases, + 3 phase with maternal infant attachment)

A

1) accepting pregnancy (joy/ambivalence)
2) identifying with the mother role
3) reordering personal relationships
4) establishing relationship with fetus: attachment process of the mother (maternal infant attachment)
- phase 1: she accepts biologic fact of pregnancy
- phase 2: she accepts the growing fetus as distinct from herself
- phase 3: she prepares realistically for the birth and parenting of the child
5) preparing for birth

TIP:
- is mother cautious for joy?
- no B/C = planned pregnancy
- potential self image issues d/t body changes

A

Q

prenantal care (goal, providers depend on, models for prenatal care) (4)

A

goal of prenatal care is to promote the health and wellbeing of the pregnant women, her fetus, the newborn, and the family
- women’s choise of maternity health care providers depends on the availability of providers, services, and facilities in the geographic region, health care insurance coverage, preferences for care, and health status
- providers for prenatal care/interprofessional teams -> need to be culturally sensitive
- models for prenatal care: traditional (physician, nurse, midwife), group prenatal care (led by midwife, group of women who get together + manage care under their own guidelines)

TIP:
“women providing care amongst themselves”
