[The Efficacy of Rooming-In in the Context the Physical and Mental Health of New Mothers]
Abstract
The Breastfeeding-Friendly Policy promotes successful breastfeeding by encouraging postpartum rooming-in and other practices that have been shown to increase breastfeeding success. Puerperium is a key transition period in a woman's life during which she faces physical changes as well as changes in roles and tasks as she transitions into motherhood. During this transition period, postpartum women typically follow the rooming-in and breastfeeding practices that are recommended by the hospital. However, without suitable assistance, the physical and mental problems that often accompany childbirth may impact the postpartum health of the mother. This article reflects on the potential health problems that are encountered by postpartum women who adopt 24-hour rooming-in practices from the perspective of their health rights and proposes suggestions for improving these practices as a reference for related government and healthcare workers.
Title: 親子同室之施行與婦女身心健康.
母嬰親善認證制度美意為促進成功的哺餵母乳，鼓勵婦女在產後即實施親子同室，以哺餵母乳並提高母乳哺餵成功率。但產後期是婦女生命中一個關鍵的過渡期，此時婦女必須面臨身體的改變，為人母所需的角色與任務等。為符合傳統母性角色要求，產後婦女通常會配合院方要求執行親子同室，和進行母乳哺育。然而若未提供適切的協助，衍生而來的身心問題可能會衝擊著產後婦女的健康。本文主要是以婦女健康權益的角度，省思24小時親子同室對產後婦女身心健康問題可能的影響，並分別對政府機關及醫護人員提出改善建議，以期對未來產後婦女的健康照護、親子同室及母乳哺育率有所助益。.
