Concerns of multiparas during the second postpartum week.
A study was conducted to identify concerns of multiparas during the early postpartum period. Twenty multiparas were interviewed at home 10 to 14 days postpartum. Family, mother, and baby items were sorted into three categories; worry, interest, and no concern. Meeting the needs of everyone at home and other family items were most frequently sorted as a concern. Feeding method, mother's educational level, yearly household income, sex of the newborn, and childbirth preparation were related to the number of concerns.
