- W347863536 abstract "Sevon, Eija Mirjami Maternal responsibility and changing relationality at the beginning of motherhood. Jyvaskyla: University of Jyvaskyla, 2009, 117 p. (Jyvaskyla Studies in Education, Psychology and Social Research ISSN 0075-4625; 365) ISBN 978-951-39-3639-6 (PDF), 978-951-39-3620-4 (nid.) Finnish summary Diss. This study follows recent family research in emphasising the importance of the everyday in studying the family realm. The study highlights the intricate relational and moral nature of early mothering by drawing on the ethics of care. The methodological starting points were in hermeneutical phenomenology, narrative research and feminist studies. The aims were, first, to investigate what it means in a woman’s life to become a mother; second, to examine a mother’s close relationships, especially those with her child and with her partner; and third, to explore how social and cultural narratives and first-time mothering become entangled in the interviewed women’s stories. The study was longitudinal and consisted of four interview sessions each with seven Finnish firsttime mothers. The interview process was oriented towards collecting stories about the mothers' everyday experiences, emotions and thoughts during their first year with the baby. By taking a narrative approach it was possible to study how new mothers make sense of the beginning of their motherhood. This study suggests that pregnancy, birth-giving and everyday life with a small baby transforms a woman’s life. The temporal and ambivalent processes involved in becoming a mother concerned: first, the choice to become a mother; second, how the mother relates to her baby and to her responsibility for the baby; third, the change in her couple relationship; and fourth, what the mother's female family relations mean to her maternal agency. Finally, and running through all four topics, is the question about how cultural narratives, such as those of motherhood, parenthood and family relations, affect how the women tell their stories. Early motherhood involves moral ambiguity that relates to the questions of responsibility and vulnerability. It is a process of reorientation pertaining not only to a woman’s own identity but often also to her couple relationship. The ambivalence felt as a part of these processes indicates how women need to reconcile contradictory demands, ideals and experiences as these arise in their different relationships and everyday roles in a novel and often demanding life situation." @default.
