For many women, the issues surrounding motherhood are complex,
confusing, and even frightening; infertility, stillbirths, and
birth defects are just some of the negative aspects of pregnancy
they sometimes face. Uncertain Motherhood presents research on
maternal behavior in relation to women who have less than optimal
outcomes in pregnancy. The contributors examine mothers' reactions
to events as diverse as unwanted pregnancies, livebirths following
stillbirths, infertility, at-risk pregnancies, premature births,
and carriages resulting in babies with birth defects. Recognizing
the need for caregivers to develop a greater understanding of the
women's experiences, the editors have assembled and integrated the
results of various studies in terms of uncertainty theory,
culminating in their proposed model of uncertain motherhood. Unique
in its focus, this sensitive and thought-provoking volume is
essential reading for professionals and students in all areas of
medical and mental health.
