Preferred term

maternal ambivalence  

Definition(s)

  • The changes and emotions associated with the arrival of a new baby are usually love, joy, and happiness. While most women take pleasure in having a baby, they may also feel exhausted, overwhelmed by the responsibilities of childcare, lonely if they take care of their child without sufficient social support, or confused about their new identity. [Source: Encyclopedia of Motherhood; Ambivalence, Maternal]
