To understand the father's lived experience of childbirth as a significant life situation within the well-being concept framework. To understand the father's lived experience of childbirth within the framework of the concept of well-being as a significant life situation.
Secondary data analysis from a qualitative study about the experience of twelve Chilean fathers who were prepared to actively participate at childbirth from a mixed public-private health system institution between 2016-2017, was carried out. Qualitative data were extracted from transcripts of open interviews with eight of the twelve fathers after childbirth. Data were analyzed using an interpretive-phenomenological approach.
Four central themes emerged from data, which were framed and understand within the psychological well-being concept: I. Feeling as a part of the healthcare team; II. Perceiving himself capable of containing and supporting his partner and being a guardian of the process; III. Being committed to being a father from the first moment of contact with the child; IV. Being wrapped in a whirlwind of emotions.
Father's lived experience at childbirth can be understood considering the psychological well-being concept. Prepared fathers could live the childbirth experience within a state of well-being, focusing on their achievements, commitments, and being satisfied with their roles as father and partner.
在幸福感概念框架内理解作为重要生活情境的分娩经历。在幸福感概念框架内理解父亲的分娩经历作为重要的生活情境。
对 2016-2017 年间 12 位智利父亲的经验进行了定性研究的二次数据分析，这些父亲来自一个混合公共-私人卫生系统机构，准备积极参与分娩。从 12 位父亲中的 8 位在分娩后的开放式访谈记录中提取定性数据。使用解释现象学方法对数据进行分析。
从数据中出现了四个核心主题，这些主题在心理幸福感概念的框架内被理解和理解：一、作为医疗保健团队的一员的感觉；二、感知自己有能力包含和支持他的伴侣，并成为过程的守护者；三、从与孩子的第一次接触开始就致力于成为父亲；四、被情感的漩涡所包围。
可以从幸福感概念来理解父亲在分娩时的体验。有准备的父亲可以在幸福感状态下体验分娩，关注自己的成就、承诺，并对自己作为父亲和伴侣的角色感到满意。
