Résumé : |
There has been a shifting of maternity care from homes to health institutions focused mainly on technology-based interventions and prevention of disease, accompanied by disapproval and discouragement of traditional home birth care (AbouZahr & Wardlaw 2001, Meleis & Im 2002). This led to a lack of emphasis towards understanding women’s social backgrounds, gender issues and the historical and cultural context in which childbirth was previously viewed and provided. In the absence of such knowledge, this interpretive phenomenological study was conducted in order to better understand how women in Zambia experience childbirth and give meaning to the phenomenon. |
