Abstract

Objective: The aim of this research is to determine the effect
of the body image of pregnancy on the breastfeeding attitude and the postpartum
breastfeeding process.

Material and
Method:
The sample of the
study consisted of 242 pregnant women who applied to the Obstetrics and
Gynecology Clinic of a public hospital. Personal information form,
Breastfeeding Attitudes of  The
Evaluation Scale (BAES) and The Multidimensional Body- Self Relations
Questionnaire (MBSRQ) were administered by face-to-face interview method at the
first visit. At the end of the sixth month, mothers were contacted by telephone
and the Breastfeeding Process Evaluation Form was applied (n = 113). In the
analysis of the data, descriptive statistical methods, Kruskal Wallis test and
Spearman correlation analysis were used.

Reults: It was determined that 61.2% of pregnants were in
the age range of 18-25 years, 31.4% of them were high school graduates, 85.1%
were not working and 66.1% had a moderate level of income. The mean of the mean
scores of the pregnant women were 209.02 ± 19.80; The average score of BAES is
107.95 ± 12.74. There was a significant positive correlation between the mean
scores of MBSRQ scale and BAES scores (p <0.000, r = 0.249). During the
postnatal period, 77% of the mothers nursed their babies, 54.1% of the mothers
suckled for 5-6 months, 49.4% of them fed their babies for 6 months only with
breast milk and 50.6% mixed. It was determined that there was no significant
difference between the nutritional status of the breastfeeding status, duration
of breastfeeding and the baby during 6 months of postpartum period and MBSRQ
points average (p> 0.05).







Conclusion: Women with a positive body image in pregnancy were
found to have higher breastfeeding attitudes. It was determined that the body
image in the pregnancy did not affect the postnatal breastfeeding process.

Gebelikteki beden imajının emzirme tutumu ve doğum sonu emzirme sürecine etkisi

Abstract

Amaç: Araştırmanın amacı, gebelikteki beden imajının emzirme tutumu ve
doğum sonu emzirme sürecine etkisini belirlemektir.

Gereç ve Yöntem: Araştırmanın örneklemini bir kamu
hastanesinin Kadın Doğum Polikliniklerine başvuran
242 gebe
oluşturdu.  Gebelere ilk görüşmede
Kişisel Bilgi Formu, Emzirme Tutumunu Değerlendirme Ölçeği (
ÇYBBİÖ) ve Çok Yönlü Beden–Benlik İlişkileri Ölçeği
(
ETDÖ) yüz yüze görüşme yöntemiyle uygulandı. İkinci görüşme doğum sonu altıncı
ayda annelere telefonla ulaşılarak yapıldı. Bu görüşmede annelere Emzirme
Sürecini Değerlendirme Formu uygulandı (n=113).
Verilerin analizinde tanımlayıcı
istatistiksel yöntemler, Kruskal Wallis testi ve spearman korelasyon analizi
kullanıldı.

Bulgular: Gebelerin %61.2’sinin
18-25 yaş aralığında olduğu,
%31.4’ünün
lise mezunu, %
85.1’inin çalışmadığı ve %66.1’inin orta düzeyde
gelire sahip olduğu belirlendi.
Gebelerin çoğu (%81) son trimesterdaydı.
Gebelerin
ÇYBBİÖ puan ortalaması 209.02±19.80; ETDÖ puan ortalaması 107.95±12.74’dür. ÇYBBİÖ puan ortalaması ile ETDÖ puan ortalamaları arasında pozitif yönlü
anlamlı ilişki saptandı (p<0.01; r=
0.249). Doğum sonu dönemde annelerin % 77’si bebeklerini emzirmiş, emziren
annelerin % 54.1’si 5-6 ay emzirmiş, % 49.4’ü bebeklerini 6 ay sadece anne sütü
ile, % 50.6’sı ise karışık olarak beslemişlerdir. Emzirme durumu, emzirme
süresi ve bebeğin doğum sonu 6 aylık süre içindeki beslenme şekli ile ÇYBBİÖ puan
ortalamaları arasında anlamlı fark olmadığı belirlendi (p>0.05).







Sonuç: Gebelikte pozitif beden
imajına sahip kadınların, emzirme tutumlarının daha yüksek olduğu bulundu.
Gebelikteki beden imajının doğum sonu emzirme sürecini ise etkilemediği
belirlendi.
