Research indicates social support is imperative for postpartum well-being. The types of social support and access to preferred supports are less understood. This article considers first-time mothers' perceptions of the effectiveness of social supports and perceived barriers to accessing support and provides recommendations for best practice. A search of the literature for terms related to postpartum social support was conducted. Major themes were identified and synthesised. A critique and analysis of the literature is presented with recommendations for best practice. Much of the research around postnatal support fails to distinguish the specific type of support, meaning creating support solutions for the postpartum period may not be effectively targeted. Recommendations for individualised support are made.
研究表明，社会支持对产后幸福感至关重要。人们对社会支持的类型以及获得首选支持的途径了解较少。本文探讨了初为人母者对社会支持有效性的看法以及获得支持的感知障碍，并提出了最佳实践建议。对与产后社会支持相关的术语进行了文献检索。确定并综合了主要主题。对文献进行了批判性分析，并提出了最佳实践建议。围绕产后支持的许多研究未能区分具体的支持类型，这意味着为产后阶段制定的支持解决方案可能没有有效的针对性。本文提出了个性化支持的建议。
