Hi,
My name is Catherine and I am a mature student in my final year of studying Psychology at Lancaster University.
For my dissertation project I am looking to conduct informal interviews with first-time mothers of healthy children aged eight-years and under, inviting them to share their experiences of mental health and wellbeing during pregnancy and the postnatal period as well as their experiences of maternal-infant bonding. Participation will remain completely anonymous and the interviews can be conducted remotely.
Women's mental health and wellbeing in the perinatal period is an important, yet understudied, area of research and your participation will help contribute to our understanding of how these experiences of first-time mothers relate to the formation of maternal-infant emotional attachments.
If you would like any further information on the study and what participation involves, please feel free to send me a private message or email me at [email protected]
Thank you 🙂
Catherine
