Study Arms (2)

Early Skin to Skin Contact Group

EXPERIMENTAL

Women who met the criteria for inclusion in the study and accepted the study (n:180) were told how to apply skin-to-skin contact. Skin-to-skin contact was initiated within the first minutes of normal delivery and skin-to-skin contact was applied to the mothers for a minimum of 15 minutes (due to the high number and frequency of births in the TDL service and hospital conditions). Routine newborn care procedures (eye drops, vaccination, footprints, etc.) performed in the delivery room were performed during skin-to-skin contact. After the skin-to-skin contact between the mother and the newborn was terminated at the end of delivery, 2 hours later, mothers were asked to fill in a personal questionnaire and a traumatic birth scale. The maternal attachment scale was completed 1 month after birth by telephone interview.

Behavioral: skin-to-skin contact

Control Group

NO INTERVENTION

Standard midwifery practices and labor follow-up were applied to women who met the inclusion criteria in the hospital (during the delivery room) (n: 187), agreed to participate in the study, and were in the control group. Neonatal routine care procedures (vaccine, footprint, eye drop application, etc.) of the postpartum hospital were performed. Then, after 2 hours postpartum, mothers were asked to fill in a personal questionnaire and a traumatic birth scale. The maternal attachment scale was completed 1 month after birth by telephone interview.
