Forty -percent of the newborn mother is anxious?Psychological expert: Dad may be a antidote

The Yangtze River Daily Da Wuhan Client August 24th (Reporter Mao Yin) Recently, the "2022 New Mother Emotional White Paper in 2022" jointly released by a psychological institution shows that 40 % of freshmen mothers are in anxiety. Dr. Li Wentian, Director of Heart Medical Medicine, Wuhan Psychological Hospital, said that there are indeed new mothers who have encountered a lot of anxiety in clinical practice, and some cases of anxiety and depression after many years, which are actually closely related to postpartum emotional issues. Seeing anxiety is the beginning of change, hoping to make more mothers' emotions be seen and healed.

Xiaomin (pseudonym), a 30 -year -old woman who recently admitted to Li Wentian, is a typical example. Xiaomin Shengwa always felt a kind of unknown sadness in the future. He felt exhausted physically and mentally. He yelled at the baby, and had several conflicts with her mother -in -law. Her husband blamed her how to talk to the old man like this. Xiao Min felt lonely and aggrieved, and his mood became worse.

"White Paper" states that in China, more than 15 million novice mothers each year, of which at least 40%of them will have different degrees of anxiety during pregnancy and postpartum, leading to low emotions, anxiety, insomnia, easy temper, reduced interest and other consequences 15%-20%of the mothers will get more and more serious until they develop into clinical depression.

● 53%of mothers will produce characters with anxiety

● 37.8%of mothers have social adaptation anxiety

● 65%of mothers are anxious and healthy baby

● 65%of mothers have baby care anxiety

● 44.2%of mothers have feeding anxiety

"The factors that cause the anxiety of novice mothers are both physiological and psychologically." Li Wentian analyzed the level of estrogen and progesterone during pregnancy significantly increased, but after the baby was born, the level of hormone levels fell rapidly, and the body was another time. It is difficult to adapt, and emotional fluctuations will occur, and postpartum depression and other problems will occur. In terms of psychology, novice mothers have to experience role conflicts. Suddenly, in addition to being happy, there will be self -doubts of whether they can be competent, and then they will have the emotions of fear and anxiety. In addition Mom temporarily abandon her maintenance of her own image. After the child is born, the mother will face the pressure of self -re -returning to the social role, and the change of the body will bring a sense of loss and frustration to the mother.

"There is also the influence of the family." After the advent of the little, family relationships often become complex and tense. For example, the elderly on both sides may compete for the control of the small family, the concept of raising children's concepts and the conflict and conflict between the two generations of people's concepts and the concept of the two generations. Differential, the relationship between mother -in -law and daughter -in -law has become a more prominent potential problem. The relationship between husband and wife also shifted to the child's challenge due to the focus. The changes and conflicts of these relationships may become the pressure and stress factors of mothers.

Li Wentian emphasized that if the mother's emotional condition is significantly exceeded the normal range, the depression or anxiety emotion has affected the normal life, and the idea of ​​self -injury and suicide should go to a specialist hospital as soon as possible. Establish this difficult period.

At the same time, mothers need to be consciously prepared for psychological preparations and accept themselves as a "clumsy" as a novice mother. Moms can learn some parenting knowledge or participate in some parenting courses. When the cognitive misunderstanding of parenting cultivation is correct, there will be more sense of control and successful experience. Establish some easy -to -reach daily goals, and gradually return to the familiar self -social identity in the steps step by step.

"Anxiety during pregnancy is generally existed, and my father participates in ease the anxiety of his mother." Cheng Yin, a national second -level psychological counselor, proposed that as an important social support system, the psychological support of the mother is crucial. For the boundaries of the elderly on both sides, couples should be the most important "offensive and defensive alliance" at such critical moments. Even if they need to get the support of the elderly, they must pay attention to the limit. Set up a "buffer zone". For example, in the relationship between mother -in -law and daughter -in -law, the husband should take on the role of "buffer", and the new father must work hard to be the "antidote" of the new mother's anxiety. The small family should work together to create a family atmosphere. In a relaxed atmosphere, it helps novice mothers to adjust their mentality and stabilize the most important stage in life.
