Abstract:
Objective:To understand the current situation of postpartum maternal perceived spouse support for breastfeeding, and explore its mediating role in the spouse support for breastfeeding and maternal breastfeeding self-efficacy.Methods:From October 2021 to October 2022, convenience sampling was used to select 602 postpartum women (42 days postpartum) and their spouses who underwent follow-up visits at Obstetric Clinics in four ClassⅢ hospitals in Shanghai as the research subject. A questionnaire survey was conducted using the General Information Questionnaire, Partner Breastfeeding Influence Scale (PBIS) , and Breastfeeding Self-efficacy Scale Short Form (BSES-SF) .Results:The PBIS score of 602 postpartum women was (121.07±25.41) , and the PBIS score of 602 maternal spouses was (134.37±18.94) . Pearson correlation analysis results showed that maternal perceived spouse support has a positive correlation with spouse support ( P<0.01) , and a positive correlation with maternal self-efficacy in breastfeeding ( P<0.01) ; spouse support was positively correlated with maternal self-efficacy in breastfeeding ( P<0.01) . The mediating effect analysis that maternal perceived spouse support played a complete mediating role between spouse support and maternal self-efficacy in breastfeeding. Conclusions:There are both connections and differences between maternal perceived spouse support and spouse support, and the positive promoting effect of spouse support on maternal self-efficacy in breastfeeding can be completely mediated by maternal perception. Medical and nursing staff should pay attention to the assessment of maternal perceived spouse support and guide spouse breastfeeding support behavior based on maternal needs and experiences of spouse support, so as to improve breastfeeding outcomes.
