Özet:

 In this study the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on womens maternity experiences as childbirth, newborn nutrition and care was examined. In the first stage, an online survey was applied to 203 people who gave birth in Türkiye during the pandemic. The birth plan of 39 participants 19.2 was determined to have changed due to the pandemic. 17.8 of the mothers stated that nobody from the parents could come to help them after the birth due to the pandemic. The majority of the mothers 71.4 were found not to accept newborn visits during the postnatal period due to the pandemic. The second stage included semi-structured interviews, and detailed interviews were conducted with 10 mothers. Two main themes were identified for birth and motherhood experiences during the COVID-19 pandemic: i disruption of the birth experience and ii changing motherhood process. It was determined that some restrictions and reduced social interactions due to the pandemic caused the birth expectation and postpartum period to deteriorate. During this period, the continuous support of midwives and nurses was of great importance for mothers who could not benefit from spouse or family support for any reason.

 Bu çalışmada COVID-19 salgınının, kadınların doğum, yenidoğan beslenmesi ve bakımı gibi annelik deneyimleri üzerindeki etkisi incelendi. İlk aşamada pandemi sürecinde Türkiyede doğum yapan 203 kişiye online anket uygulandı. Pandemi nedeniyle 39 katılımcının 19.2 doğum planının değiştirildiği tespit edildi. Annelerin 17.8i doğum sonrasında pandemi nedeniyle ebeveynlerinden kimsenin yardıma gelemediğini belirtti. Annelerin çoğunluğunun 71,4 pandemi nedeniyle doğum sonrası dönemde, yenidoğan ziyaretini kabul etmediği belirlendi. İkinci aşamada yarı yapılandırılmış görüşmeler yer aldı ve 10 anne ile ayrıntılı görüşmeler gerçekleştirildi. COVID-19 salgını sırasında doğum ve annelik deneyimleri için iki ana tema belirlendi: i doğum deneyiminde bozulma ve ii değişen annelik süreci. Pandemi nedeniyle getirilen bazı kısıtlamalar ve sosyal etkileşimlerin azalmasının, doğum beklentisinin ve doğum sonrası dönemin bozulmasına neden olduğu tespit edildi. Bu süreçte herhangi bir nedenle eş veya aile desteğinden yararlanamayan anneler için ebe ve hemşirelerin sürekli desteği büyük önem taşıyordu.
