将20名剖宫产的产妇与30名阴道分娩的产妇进行比较，以确定她们对分娩经历的看法是否存在差异。还调查了全身麻醉与区域麻醉对剖宫产母亲满意度的影响。所有受试者年龄在20至32岁之间，在产后48小时内接受采访，并完成了一份29项调查问卷，该调查问卷衡量了产妇对分娩和分娩经历的看法。剖腹产母亲和全身麻醉者对分娩体验的满意度明显较低。剖宫产组在给婴儿取名时表现出更大的犹豫，并倾向于认为他们的分娩是异常的，有社会耻辱感。在剖腹产手术室里有一个支持者的存在似乎减轻了这些母亲的焦虑。这些研究结果表明，剖腹产对母亲的分娩和分娩经验的看法有负面影响。有必要进一步研究能够增强家庭这种体验的因素。
Twenty primiparous mothers who had cesarean births were compared with 30 primiparous mothers who had vaginal deliveries to determine differences in their perceptions of the birth experience. The effect of general versus regional anesthesia on the satisfaction level of the cesarean mothers was also investigated. All subjects were between 20 and 32 years of age, were interviewed within 48 hours postpartum, and completed a 29-item questionnaire that measures maternal perceptions about the labor and delivery experience. Satisfaction with the birth experience was significantly lower among cesarean mothers and among those who had general anesthesia. The cesarean group displayed greater hesitancy in naming their infants and tended to view their deliveries as abnormal and having social stigma. The presence of a support person in the operating room for a cesarean birth seemed to lessen anxiety among these mothers. These findings suggest that a cesarean birth has a negative impact on the mother's perceptions of her labor and delivery experience. There is a need for further study of factors that can enhance this experience for families.
