    Author: Mercer RT.
    Journal: J Obstet Gynecol Neonatal Nurs; 2006; 35(5):649-51. PubMed ID: 16958722.
    Abstract:
    In this overview, the stages in the process of becoming a mother and the variables influencing the process, including the mother's interacting family and friends, community, and societal environments, are discussed as a background for providing care to facilitate this process. Empathic listening and interactive dialogue with the mother are important approaches to identify and address her concerns during this important transition.
