Book Synopsis Birth Fathers and Their Adoption Experiences by : Gary Clapton
Download or read book Birth Fathers and Their Adoption Experiences written by Gary Clapton and published by Jessica Kingsley Publishers. This book was released on 2003 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Virtually all literature about birth parents of adopted children has focused on mothers. In this pioneering study, Gary Clapton gives us a fresh perspective: he recounts the experiences of thirty birth fathers separated from their children at birth. Discussing different notions of fatherhood, such as biological paternity, social fatherhood, sperm donorship and the `father figure', this informative book - the first on birth fathers in adoption - brings new light to issues such as the decision to give up a child for adoption, the child's desire to find his or her birth parents, and the facilitation of contact in later life. Written in an accessible style with insights into adoption and social work practice past and present, Birth Fathers and their Adoption Experiences offers a vital new perspective on understanding the causes and consequences of adoption, and makes positive suggestions for working with those whom it affects.
Book Synopsis Men and Maternity by : Rosemary Mander
Download or read book Men and Maternity written by Rosemary Mander and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2004-08-02 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the development of modern medicine, men have become increasingly involved in childbearing as obstetricians and, more recently, as fathers. This book argues that the beneficial contribution of men has been taken for granted. Certain changes to childbearing practice have resulted, which, together with men's involvement, have been encouraged without any reference to evidence and without adequate opportunity for reflection. Considering the findings of recent research and wider literature, and using qualitative research with mothers the text examines: · how men became increasingly involved in childbearing · the medicalisation of childbirth · the difficulties men experience with childbirth as fathers · challenging situations, such as fathers' grief · the taken-for-granted assumptions that men’s increased contribution to childbearing is beneficial This text will be of great interest to academics and postgraduate students of midwifery, obstetrics, medicine and health studies, as well as practising midwives and obstetricians, health visitors, childbirth educators and labor and delivery room nurses.

Download or read book Caesarean written by Rosemary Mander and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2007-05-21 with total page 397 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book critically analyzes the place of caesarean in childbearing at the beginning of the twenty first century. It questions the changes that are taking place in childbirth and, in particular, the effects and implications of an increase in caesarean births. This controversial work by a practising midwife and researcher, includes discussion of: the context of the operation and description of it health systems around the world and their caesarean incidence rates decision-making and cultural/medical constraints the short and long term implications of caesarean for baby and mother. Using up-to-date research, Rosemary Mander bases her argument on a firm evidence-base and argues that the rapidly rising caesarean section rate may not be for the benefit of either the woman giving birth or her baby. Rather, the beneficiaries may actually be those professionals whose investment is in extending the range of their influence and thus increasing the medicalization of normal life.

Book Synopsis Doulas and Intimate Labour: Boundaries, Bodies and Birth by : Angela N. Casaneda
Download or read book Doulas and Intimate Labour: Boundaries, Bodies and Birth written by Angela N. Casaneda and published by Demeter Press. This book was released on 2015-12-01 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scholars turn to reproduction for its ability to illuminate the practices involved with negotiating personhood for the unborn, the newborn, and the already-existing family members, community members, and the nation. The scholarship in this volume draws attention to doula work as intimate and relational while highlighting the way boundaries are created, maintained, challenged, and transformed. Intimate labour as a theoretical construct provides a way to think about the kind of care doulas offer women across the reproductive spectrum. Doulas negotiate boundaries and often blur the divisions between communities and across public and private spheres in their practice of intimate labour. This book weaves together three main threads: doulas and mothers, doulas and their community, and finally, doulas and institutions. The lived experience of doulas illustrates the interlacing relationships among all three of these threads. The essays in this collection offer a unique perspective on doulas by bringing together voices that represent the full spectrum of doula work, including the viewpoints of birth, postpartum, abortion, community based, adoption, prison, and radical doulas. We privilege this broad representation of doula experiences to emphasize the importance of a multi-vocal framing of the doula experience. As doulas move between worlds and learn to live in liminal spaces, they occupy space that allows them to generate new cultural narratives about birthing bodies.

Book Synopsis Community-based Maternity Care by : Geoffrey Marsh
Download or read book Community-based Maternity Care written by Geoffrey Marsh and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 1998-10-22 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This important book makes the case for placing maternity care in the community. It has been written by a multidisciplinary group. The first section considers the role and function of the participants in community-based maternity care; the woman, the midwife, and the GP. The second section discusses four major contemporary issues: the radically changing social background, the economics of care, audit, and education of the carers. Next the major clinical challenges in maternity care are tackled: how to reduce the differences in morbidity and mortality which are associated with differences in age, social class and ethnicity; the care of disadvantaged groups; prematurity and low birth weight and their prevention; technology used in childbirth; and the fetal origins of adult disease. Finally, all aspects of the clinical care carried out by Gps and midwives are covered. The editors hope that after reading this book midwives, Gps, and obstetricians should find the theory underpinning their work has been sharply defined and that their work will be more effective and evidence-based. The editors, a GP and a midwife, anticipate the resolution of the current tensions between midwife, GP, and obstetrician and look forward to a responsive, effective and sensitive service for mothers and babies in the next millennium.

Chapter 7 considers concepts and the geographies in skills attainment.
Book Synopsis Becoming a Mother by : Mari Gallagher
Download or read book Becoming a Mother written by Mari Gallagher and published by Orpen Press. This book was released on 2018-12-28 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Becoming a Mother is the first book published in Ireland exploring the complexity of adoption from the perspective of an adoptive parent. It draws on a combination of seminal and modern texts and personal memoir to present a unique view of what it means to be an adoptive parent in Ireland today. The book has a particular focus on intercountry adoptive parenting, and also looks at adoption from the viewpoints of the adopted person and birth parent. A dearth of literature exploring adoption exists on Irish bookshelves. Becoming a Mother seeks to fill that void by exploring issues around the topic of adoption: the secrecy and silence that still pervades adoption, the primal desire to parent that drives adoptive parenting, the tumultuousness of search and reunion, and more. It includes shared experiences and tips on bonding with the adopted child as well as a look at parenthood for the adopted person. Becoming a Mother will be of interest to the estimated 10 per cent of the Irish population connected to adoption in some way, including the 5,000 children who were adopted from abroad. The book has been included as essential reading on preparatory courses for prospective adoptive parents and also on Barnardos’ post-adoptive service reading list.
