The Fertility Management Experiences of Australian Women with a Non-communicable Chronic Disease
Subjective meanings of ‘unintended’ pregnancy
Unintended pregnancy can be difficult to identify and conceptualise. We aimed to understand how unintended pregnancies are constructed, explained and situated in a reproductive life. A total of 41 women and 7 men aged 20-50 years were interviewed in depth. Transcripts were analysed using iterative hermeneutic techniques informed by narrative theory. Of 34 participants who had been pregnant or had a partner in pregnancy, 12 women and 1 man describ…

The study findings will thereby expand understanding of long term disaster recovery needs for individuals and communities
