Abstract:
Maternity nurses are authorized health workers that provide antenatal care, but their roles and function in antenatal care services are not recognized by the public. This research aims to reveal the experience of pregnant women during antenatal visits in private clinic maternity nursing. Six pregnant women selected using purposive sampling underwent an in-depth interview in this descriptive phenomenological study. Data were analyzed through thematic content analysis with Moustakas approach. Three themes were identified in this study: 1) women experience good communication with maternity nurses; 2) women receive family-centered nursing care; 3) the schedule, cost, facility, and types of service meet the participants’ needs. This study suggests for nurses to improve their competencies in delivering antenatal care according to clients’ needs.Abstrak Pengalaman Kehamilan Wanita Selama Masa Perawatan Antenatal di Klinik Mandiri Keperawatan Maternitas.

Abstract:
La maternité se définit de manière intuitive par le fait de porter un enfant et de le mettre au monde. Notion universelle, la maternité semble empreinte d’évidence et de certitude et à ce titre n’a guère suscité d’interrogation jusqu’à une époque récente. Pourtant, cette évidence supposée caractériser la maternité n’est bien qu’une évidence relative, tant du point de vue de la science que du droit. En effet, la maternité biologique peut désormais être divisée entre maternité utérine et génétique, elle n’est donc plus certaine. Ensuite, la notion juridique de maternité ne procède pas d’un pur décalque de la biologie. Au contraire, s’il s’appuie sur le fait biologique de la maternité, le droit en adopte une interprétation singulière, laissant découvrir l’existence d’un véritable concept juridique de maternité. Le contexte de la maternité apparaît en outre aujourd’hui profondément bouleversé, si bien que cette notion semble se restructurer autour de la seule volonté et subir un brouillage de sa distinction avec la paternité. Ainsi bouleversée, la maternité peut-elle alors être repensée ? S’il est nécessaire de prendre en compte les facteurs de bouleversement de la maternité, sa spécificité tirée de l’accouchement ne semble guère devoir être remise en cause. Une telle affirmation n’exclut toutefois pas d’admettre une réception conditionnée des formes nouvelles de maternité
Motherhood is intuitively defined by carrying a child and giving birth. Universal concept, motherhood seems to be evident and sure, and as such, has hardly raised questions until recently. Yet, this obviousness supposed to characterize motherhood is only relative from the point of view of both science and law. Indeed, biological maternity can now be divided between uterine maternity and genetics, so it is no longer certain. Next, the legal notion of motherhood does not come from a pure decal of biology. On the contrary, if it is based on the biological fact of maternity, the law adopts a singular interpretation, revealing the existence of a real legal concept of motherhood. The context of motherhood also seems to be deeply upset, so that this notion seems to be restructured around intention, and its distinction with paternity is blurred. So upset, can maternity be rethought? Although it is necessary to take into account factors of change in motherhood, its specificity derived from childbirth does not seem to be denied. However, this affirmation does not exclude a conditioned admission of new forms of maternity

Abstract:
Background: Vulnerability is universally present but experienced biopsychosocially on an individual level. Stigma develops when populations are labelled vulnerable. Individual vulnerability can be lessened by resources accessed to assist in developing resilience. A deeper analysis of vulnerability and resilience is required to inform policy, ethics, law and social life. Design: Qualitative, quantitative and mixed method approaches were used. Sample: Five papers represented the perspectives of 102 women, 21 clinicians and 13 student midwives. A further paper presented a concept analysis which included the perspectives of 10,067 women and 325 clinicians (total sample size women n=10,169; clinicians n=346; student midwives n=13). Methods: Gadamer’s ontological perspective of time, place and culture and was seen through Engel’s biopsychosocial lens. Epistemologically, truth originated from multiple realities. Methodologically, women’s experiences were captured via mixed methods. 7 Analysis: Thematic analysis and descriptive statistics were synthesised via framework analysis. Findings: A coherent theme of vulnerability in maternity care was apparent. Women’s concerns were trivialised. The professional’s style of communication determined the women’s experience of maternity care. Clinician control of care provision undermined women’s ability to choose. Women developed resilience in adverse circumstances via: accessing other supportive members of society, identifying their need for information, talking to others and developing accommodative coping strategies. Conclusion: The new conceptual model, in this thesis, should be evaluated via mixed methods. A biopsychosocial approach should underpin informed choice. Clinicians need raised awareness about how interaction can lower women’s self-esteem and build resilience in others. Higher education needs to challenge preconceived biases in safe environments via reflective processes. Research should explore women’s influential circle in decision making during maternity care. Women should be involved in the design of research to inform how best to capture their complex lived experience. Funders of research and ethics committees should request information about how implementation of evidence may be influenced by the current clinical environment. Impact should be measured post implementation. Social policy should be informed by a deeper, conceptual analysis of vulnerability and resilience.

Abstract:
This study looks at how the transition experience of pregnancy, maternity leave and return to work shapes women’s careers in management. Under the umbrella of qualitative methodology, the research epistemology is informed through a phenomenological inquiry and uses interpretivism as a way of understanding how women interpret their life-world experience. The qualitative study allows for the stories of 17 women and 4 HR/Line managers experiencing workforce transitions to be told. The Mosaic Model is the resulting framework that explains the findings for how women, who are mothers, build and manage their professional identity and achieve career goals or maintain their aspirations in management. It shows how the mosaic is built through the regulatory, organisational and individual layers. The findings from this research provide a base for understanding individual and organisational transition themes. The Mosaic Model provides a backdrop to the careful arrangement, positioning and presentation of the transition identity during the experience, highlighting how women manage their extra pieces and how they fit these within a structured organisational context. Furthermore, it contributes to the existing body of work relating to women in management and organisational practice. In doing so, the study identifies the need for new work patterns that reflect flexibilisation for women, workforce transition training for organisations and coaching for managers and women as a vehicle to explore expectations and design fit for purpose roles. The aim of the Mosaic Model is to provide a vehicle for discussion that may help springboard new working styles in the contemporary workplace that promote fusion rather than separation between motherhood and management identities.

Abstract:
Employment among women with children has grown rapidly in the United Kingdom since the early 1980s. Nonetheless, in this society motherhood remains the major correlate of female labour force participation and women, on becoming a mother, typically make a decision as to whether they should leave employment, interrupting their working lives to raise children, or continue in employment throughout the childbearing years. The aims of this study were to explore the decisions made by women on the transition to motherhood, and to gain an understanding of why some women continue in employment while others do not. The research for the study was based on interviews with a sample of two hundred and two women, who were first time mothers, taking maternity leave from employment in the health service in Northern Ireland. The interviews were structured around eight propositions suggesting a probablistic relationship between various characteristics and circumstances, and the likelihood of a woman continuing in employment. The study found that almost three-quarters of women intended to return to work. Analysis of the data indicated that for the majority, the co-existence and interaction of three variables - high earnings, availability of childcare and a care-sharing partner - influenced the likelihood of a woman continuing in employment. The conclusions drawn are that a woman's circumstances, in particular her income level, the availability of childcare, and the support of her partner, will largely determine the choice-set available to her, and hence may restrict the role which personal preference can play in her employment decision following maternity leave. The policy implications of the study's findings are considered, and a range of policy responses proposed, with a view to enhancing the choices available to both men and women for combining parenthood and employment.

This performance text examines complexities of personal and maternal identity in family life. Speaking in first, second, and third person voices, the author offers autoethnographic accounts of the tensions between separateness and connectedness, normative and subjective motherhood, and novice and seasoned perspectives. The piece functions as a text of resistance that pushes against normative expectations about maternal emotion and child-centered maternal dialogue and gives voice to evolutions in mother wit and lifeworlds.

Full text
Abstract:
La principale question à laquelle cette thèse tente de répondre, c’est la façon dont est abordée et révélée la question de la maternité et, plus largement, de la parentalité dans la mythologie grecque et comment, par le biais de cette approche, nous pouvons déceler et expliquer la situation sociale des femmes et leur statut maternel dans le système de valeurs que véhicule la mythologie. En utilisant la catégorie du genre dans le traitement de cette thématique, cette thèse s’efforce de proposer de nouvelles possibilités pour interpréter et expliquer l'abolition de la maternité et plus largement de la parentalité, l'infanticide, mais aussi la survivance du système pré-patriarcal dans le système religieux androcentré du panthéon grec. On examine les mythes en prenant en compte leur contexte social, culturel et historique afin d’en tirer des conclusions sur la position de chaque sexe dans la sphère publique et privée, sur le rôle respectif des hommes et des femmes dans leur vie privée, sur les relations de pouvoir et de subordination entre les sexes, ainsi que sur le système des valeurs et des perceptions qui dominent, mais – surtout – sur la représentation qui est donnée de ce système dans les mythes grecs. En sens, cette thèse se veut une contribution à la tentative plus large qui est universellement en cours pour réintégrer les femmes dans le contexte non seulement de l'histoire, mais aussi de la mythologie
The main question that this thesis tries to answer is how the subject of maternity and, in general, parenthood is discussed and revealed through the Greek mythology and how we can, through this approach, pinpoint and explain the social status of women and maternity in the mythological value system. By using the category of “sex” in this subject’s approach, analysis and conclusions, the purpose of this thesis is to offer new possibilities to interpret and explain, regarding the abolishment of maternity and, generally, parenthood, the act of infanticide, but also the survival of the prοpatriachal system in the male-dominated religious belief of the Greek pantheon. The myths are being examined by taking into consideration their social, cultural and historical context in order to come to conclusions about each sex’s position in the public and private sector, about the roles of men and women in their private lives, about the relationships of power and submission between them, as well as the dominant value and perception system and, above all, about the representation of this system in the Greek mythology. In this sense, this thesis aims to be a contribution to the ongoing wider global effort to reintegrate women not only in a historical context but also in mythology

Abstract:
Introduction: Women can give birth in different birthing positions. The decision to change positions during childbirth may be influenced by certain socially and culturally determined factors. These may include: the chosen maternity, the woman's wishes, the rate of pain, the duration of the birth, the woman's education, and the course of pregnancy and birth. By changing the birth position, the diameter of the birth canal can be increased, allowing more space for the foetus. The aim of our study was to investigate the use of different birth positions in Slovenian maternity hospitals. Methods: A descriptive and causal non-experimental method of empirical research was used, based on an online survey, i.e., a questionnaire. The survey was conducted among midwives in Slovenian maternity hospitals. It was conducted by 3rd year midwifery students of the Faculty of Health Sciences, University of Ljubljana. Data were analysed based on descriptive statistics with frequencies and percentages. Results: Most midwives in the first stage of birth practice a lateral position (92 %). Followed by walking (90%) and sitting on the ball (81 %). In the second stage of labour, the side position is the most common (88 %). This is followed by the supine position (58%), the half-sitting position (50 %), and the position on all fours (46 %). In the first stage of labour, balls (98 %), showers (85 %), and pillows (60 %) are the most used birth aids. In the second stage of labour, the most common aids are balls (52 %), birth showers (52 %), and pillows (46 %). Discussion and conclusion: The results of the survey show that in Slovenian maternity hospitals the upright posture (walking, sitting on the ball) and the lateral position are predominant. There are many delivery aids in the maternity hospitals, but not all of them are used so frequently in the first and second stage of labour.

Abstract:
Introduction: In Slovenia, routine first newborn care includes neonatal eye prophylaxis, vitamin K administration and umbilical cord protection. Vitamin K administration and neonatal eye prophylaxis are legally mandated and compulsory in Slovenia. The aim of the study was to investigate certain aspects of neonatal prophylaxis in Slovenian maternity hospitals. Methods: The descriptive and cavsal-non-experimental method of empirical research used was an online survey based on a questionnaire. The survey was carried out on a purposive sample of midwives working in Slovenian maternity hospitals. It was carried out by third-year students of the Midwifery programme at the Faculty of Health at the University of Ljubljana. The data were analysed on the basis of descriptive statistics with calculations of frequencies and percentages. Results: The results showed that most midwives use potassium hypermanganate (72 %) for prophylactic umbilical protection. Most (40 %) midwives apply vitamin K up to 1 hour after delivery. Most midwives (78 %) use information on the use of prophylactic vitamin K application, including 83 % of midwives knowing at least three benefits of prophylactic eye protection. Discussion and conclusion: The results of the survey showed that the practice of prophylactic protection in Slovenian maternity hospitals is in line with the recommendations of the profession, although it could be further optimised.

Abstract:
The family rituals of the Old Believers of the Republic of Moldova remain poorly studied. This is especially true of maternity rituals. In comparison with other rituals of the life cycle – wedding and funeral-memorial, – the maternity rituals are relatively weakly expressed outwardly. The maternity rituals are divided into several periods: prenatal, birth and postnatal. In accordance with this, the author compiled a special questionnaire for conducting extended interviews with informants from villages with a compact population of Lipovans (primarily Kunicha, Pokrovka, Egorovka, Staraya Dobrudzha), as well as with those who live in cities, including Chisinau, where there are a large number of Old Believers. In our opinion, there is a need to analyze the differences in family rituals, including childbirth, in different localities. But this issue requires further study. This article presents some preliminary results of the study.

Abstract:
This study seeks to determine the impact on female labor outcomes of the amendment to the Colombian labor law that extended maternity leave from 12 to 14 weeks (Law 1468 of July 2011). To identify this impact, labor market outcomes of two groups of women with different fertility rates are compared. The study finds evidence that as a result of the extension of the maternity leave period, women in the high-fertility age group experience an increase in inactivity rates, informality, and self-employment. The study points to the need for a redesign of maternity protection policy that would enable the economic and social costs of bearing children to be shared by both parents and that may generate social change regarding the importance of paternal care.
