Expectant Mothers’ Reflections on Childhood and Parenting: Cross-Sectional Study
Expectant women's upbringing shapes their parenting expectations and support needs. Many, especially those with difficult pasts, expect these experiences to affect parenting. These findings highlight the role of intergenerational transmission and the value of inviting such reflection as part of antenatal care to identify support needs.
