About

The postnatal period is a risky period in which mothers experience regressive and progressive changes and rapid biopsychosocial changes. Since this process affects not only the mother but also the family, mothers are under intense stress due to adaptation to the changes that occur in this period.

Full description

The postnatal period is a risky period in which retrogressive and progressive changes and rapid biopsychosocial changes occur in mothers. Since this process affects not only the mother but also the family, mothers are under intense stress due to adaptation to the changes occurring in this period. Studies have reported that the most common physical problems in the early postpartum period after caesarean section are pain in the incision area, difficulty in caring for the baby alone, activity intolerance, fatigue, insomnia, breastfeeding problems (such as nipple or lack of milk), mastitis and abdominal tension/gas. As important as it is to reduce postpartum symptoms after caesarean section, it is also important to support and maintain breastfeeding. However, postpartum symptoms such as pain, fatigue and negative effects of anaesthesia after caesarean section negatively affect the breastfeeding process and lead to a delay in the onset of lactation.

When the literature was examined, no study was found that examined the effects of mindfulness-based stress reduction programme and neurolinguistic programme on fatigue, sleep quality, lactation and depression in the postpartum long term.
