第一次成为青春期母亲面临的挑战不仅对她们的青春期发展阶段提出了额外的要求，而且对她们适应作为父母的新角色的能力也提出了额外的要求。本研究的目的是探索和更好地理解首次怀孕的青春期母亲在产后4-6周期间养育子女的意义和经验。二次内容分析是利用从先前进行的一项关于影响青少年母亲自我育儿知觉的因素的研究中收集的叙事数据进行的。从内容分析中可以看出三个主题：“被夹在两个世界之间”，“感到孤独和绝望”，以及“如果我当时知道我现在知道的就好了。”调查结果显示，许多青春期母亲对为人父母的要求缺乏准备，因此需要来自医疗保健提供者和教育工作者的额外指导、指导和支持。
First-time adolescent mothers deal with challenges that place extra demands not only on their stage of adolescent development but also on their ability to adapt to their new role as a parent. The purpose of this study was to explore and better understand first-time adolescent mothers' meaning and experience of parenting during the 4-to-6-week postpartum period. A secondary content analysis was performed, using narrative data collected from a previously conducted study on factors that influence adolescent mothers' self-perceptions of parenting. Three themes emerged from the content analysis: ``Being Caught Between Two Worlds,'' ``Feeling Alone and Desperate,'' and ``If I Knew Then What I Know Now.'' Findings revealed many adolescent mothers are unprepared for the demands of parenthood and, so, need extra guidance, instruction, and support from health-care providers and educators.
