Which factor is directly related to poor maternal attachment?
a. Inability to breastfeed
b. Maternal fatigue and lack of sleep
c. Advanced maternal age
d. Short hospital stay
B
If the mother's physical need for rest following delivery is not met, this will interfere with her ability to "take hold" of participation in the neonate's care. Maternal attachment can be as strong with nonlactating mothers as with breastfeeding mothers. Advanced maternal age does not have a bearing on maternal attachment. A short hospital stay may have an impact, but is considered a normal standard of care that should not interfere with maternal role attainment.
