Purpose of the research:
This study aimed to examine the effects of individualized care and counseling given to mothers in the first trimester after birth on maternal attachment, maternal self-efficacy and maternal function.
In this context, the hypotheses of the research are as follows:
1. Individualized care and counseling does not have a significant effect on the level of maternal attachment. 2. Individualized care and counseling does not have a positive effect on mothers\' self-efficacy perceptions. 3. Individualized care and counseling does not have a significant effect on the gain of maternal function.
The study consists of experimental and control groups. The mothers of the experimental group will be interviewed in the 2nd, 4th, 6th, 8th and 12th postpartum weeks, and various surveys will be administered through counseling.
Control group mothers will not be given any training or counseling by the researcher other than the standard care and services offered in the hospital. The measurement tools applied to the experimental group mothers will be simultaneously applied to the control group mothers.
Being primiparous
Having a vaginal birth
Having given birth at term
Being 18 years or older
• Having a history of risky pregnancy
Participated in any birth preparation training program
The mother shows signs of mental or physical illness (self-report/clinical diagnosis).
Inability to communicate effectively with the mother
Parallel
İndividualized care education
Other interventionA single session of training will be given to the mothers in the experimental group. In addition, the mother will be provided with counseling by the researcher at any time she wishes. The aim is to increase the mother-infant bonding levels and self-efficacy of the mothers, who will be supported by the care plans that will be created based on Swanson\'s Theory of Care, and to adapt more easily to the role of motherhood, by evaluating them with the help of check-lists after the observations.
Mother-to-Infant Bonding Scale (ABBÖ)
It is a scale that allows the mother to express the feelings she feels towards her baby with a single word. It is a 4-point Likert type scale consisting of 8 items. Responses consisting of four options are scored between 0-3. The lowest score that can be obtained from the scale is 0, while the highest score is 24.
Maternal Attachment Scale (MBS)
It is a one-dimensional scale consisting of a total of 26 items in a four-point Likert type that measures maternal feelings and behaviors that show love. The expressions were determined as "always (a) (4 points)", "often (b) (3 points)", "sometimes (c) (2 points)" and "never (d) (1 point)". The lowest score to be obtained from the scale is 26 and the highest score is 104. A high score indicates high maternal attachment.
Parental Self-Efficacy Scale (EÖSÖ)
It is an 18-item, 5-point Likert type scale developed to determine parents' personal judgments about their competence in the parental role. The answers to the items on the scale are listed as "Totally Agree", "Agree", "Undecided", "Disagree" and "Strongly Disagree".
Barkin Maternal Function Scale (BAFÖ)
The seven-point Likert type scale, developed to evaluate the functional status of the mother after birth, consists of a total of 16 questions. Responses on the scale are expressed as 0 "strongly disagree", 1 "disagree", 2 "somewhat disagree", 3 "undecided", 4 "somewhat agree", 5 "agree", 6 "completely agree". The lowest score that can be obtained from the scale is 0 and the highest score is 96. Evaluation is made based on the total score. A high score means that the maternal function is high.
