Research Abstract |
This study clarified the physiological and psychological characteristics before and after breastfeeding in puerperal women who underwent breast massage or received positioning and attachment care. Ten puerperal women undergoing breast massage or receiving positioning and attachment care from obstetrics facilities A and B were surveyed. The survey involved electrocardiogram measurements before, during, and after breast feeding and administration of a questionnaire before and after breastfeeding. Of the five mood states, tension and excitement(P<0. 01) decreased significantly after breastfeeding on the fourth day after birth. In addition, the high frequency component, which reflects parasympathetic nervous activity, was significantly higher(P<0. 01) during breastfeeding or breast massage than that before breastfeeding. The parasympathetic nervous system was simultaneously activated by breastfeeding or breast massage, creating a relaxed state despite physical stress.
