‘But your latch looks fine!’ Understanding women’s experiences with breastfeeding pain
Background Breastfeeding is an international public health priority and is considered optimal for both infants and parents. However, initiating and sustaining breast/chestfeeding can be difficult. Evidence suggests that parents commonly encounter physical barriers to feeding, with most experiencing at least some pain during initiation of breast/chestfeeding. Enduring feeding pain takes a physical and emotional toll, yet little is known about live…
Walking as socio-material micro-structures for new parents
New parenthood involves a reorientation with place and neighbourhood spaces. • Walking supports parent wellbeing through mental, physical, and emotional benefits. • Small, mundane aspects of the environment impact parents’ walking experiences. • Walking provides unstructured time for parents, easing time's demands. • Findings suggest local health promotion potential in urban neighbourhood design. New parenthood is a time of change and upheaval in…

Not/belonging as health promotion
Motherhood has life-long impacts on health and exacerbates health disparities. Birthing a baby changes life immensely with heightened affectivity and emotions posing risks and opportunities. Identity-focused maternal transition theory and dominant cultural narratives of neoliberal, nuclear, and heterosexual parenting have created a narrow framework within which to understand the responsibilities and challenges of motherhood. In this we paper prop…
Venturing outside
The transition to parenthood is a transformative journey marked by numerous adjustments, presenting both physical and mental health challenges. Recognising the crucial role of a sense of belonging for parental health in this transition, this study delves into the experiences of new parents, exploring the act of "journeying" within their local geographies. Through analysis of an online survey among new parents in suburban Wellington, Aotearoa New …
Covid-19 vaccination in pregnancy
Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, pregnant women/people were identified as an at-risk group of severe COVID-19 disease. Consequently, vaccine uptake among this group became a public health priority. However, the relationship between pregnancy and vaccination decision-making is complex, and the heightened uncertainty and anxiety produced through the pandemic further exacerbated this immunization decision. This study explores COVID-19 vaccination d…
Next Level Health
Improving equity in women’s health requires gender-specific and empowering approaches. However, health programs often disempower women by adopting a ‘one-size-fits-all’ approach that emphasizes diet, exercise and weight loss over other important aspects like sleep and mental wellbeing. This article reports on the design of Next Level Health (NLH), a program that aims to empower women through developing a wide range of health behaviors to support …
Towards a mother-centred maternal health promotion
A transformative approach to maternal health promotion should be mother-centred, context-driven and grounded in lived experiences. Health promotion can achieve this by drawing on its disciplinary roots to extend and reorient maternal health promotion towards an approach of non-stigmatizing and equitable health promotion that has mothers’ well-being at the centre, particularly giving credit to marginalized, ‘non-normative’ maternities. This articl…
Beyond voice
The maternal transition is a key concept for studying first-time motherhood. Whilst qualitative research in this space has contributed much to understanding the psychological and sociocultural shifts in this transition, a broad adoption of conventional humanistic qualitative methodologies has produced linear and rather homogenous knowledges. In this article, we interrogate the onto-epistemological repercussions of such inquiry and cut into this w…

Empowering Women in the Face of Body Ideals
Achieving women’s health equity and empowerment is a global priority. In a Western context, women are often disempowered by the value society places on body size, shape or weight, which can create a barrier to health. Health promotion programs can exacerbate women’s preoccupations with their bodies by focusing outcomes toward achieving an “ideal” body size. Women’s health promotion activities should be empowering if the desired outcomes are to im…
The psychosocial benefits of providing non-kin childcare in older adults
Community grandparenting may promote the well-being of older adults. We examined the impact of non-kin and grandparental childcare on quality of life and loneliness using longitudinal data from 2653 older New Zealanders collected over 2 years. Providing both non-kin and grandparental childcare predicted greater self-realisation for women only and was associated with reduced levels of control and autonomy for men. Non-kin childcare was also associ…
Ashamed, Silent and Stuck in a System”—Applying a Structural Violence Lens to Midwives’ Stories on Social Disadvantage in Pregnancy
Historical and enduring maternal health inequities and injustices continue to grow in Aotearoa New Zealand, despite attempts to address the problem. Pregnancy increases vulnerability to poverty through a variety of mechanisms. This project qualitatively analysed an open survey response from midwives about their experiences of providing maternity care to women living with social disadvantage. We used a structural violence lens to examine the effec…
