2 Annotated Bibliography Annotated Bibliography Burns, Elaine et al. "Breastfeeding after Return to Work: An Australian National Workplace Survey." Maternal and child nutrition 19.3 (2023): e13516-n/a. Web. This is the largest known study for breastfeeding and returning to work. When a person returns to work they are in categories or part-time, full-time indicating their number of hours that they are required to work. In the survey given, it was proven that forty one percent of the women didn’t have a suitable place to breastfeed, and seven percent did not even have access to a refrigerator. This survey was done on a total of 2343 women, and seventy four percent of those women couldn’t reach their goals for breastfeeding. Many of those women lacked the confidence to speak up about their conditions. This article is so important because it shows a real- life example of how many women are impacted by the inability to breastfeed due to work. Gabriel, Allison S. et al. "When Work and Family Blend Together: Examining the Daily Experiences of Breastfeeding Mothers at Work." Academy of Management journal 63.5 (2020): 1337–1369. Web. This multistudy investigation shows both the positive and negative consequences of breastfeeding. This study showed the breastfeeding stigmas, the compassion that comes with breastfeeding, and the quality provided for the breastfeeding mother. It was broken into two studies. Study one interviewed thirty eight women, discussed their hardships, and daily experiences with breastfeeding. Study two showed the negative effects of breastfeeding and the issues with setting goals for breastfeeding. This study shows the real life effects of breastfeeding and going back to work. Mandel, Bethany. "The Fear of the Breastfeeding Stigma May Be More Powerful than Any Actual Opposition." NBC News, NBC News, 3 Mar. 2018, www.nbcnews.com/think/opinion/fear-breastfeeding-stigma-may-be-more-powerful-any- actual-opposition-ncna852821 . This article discusses the hardships of transitioning from home to work with a breastfeeding baby but also shows the confidence many women wish they had. New moms are used to being isolated and alone with their children, and are used to nursing them every ninety minutes. The transition to work is hard and has a large impact on the ability to breastfeed. At three months, forty six percent of mothers are nursing, and only twenty five percent of mothers are still able to breastfeed at six months. In forty seven out of fifty states allow for women to breastfeed anytime, anywhere, whether they would like to cover up or not. Due to many women not knowing this, they isolate themselves at home because they are uncomfortable with bringing a bottle, or feeding a baby in a dirty bathroom. This is essential to the paper because there is a negative stigma against breastfeeding and this shows some of those affects.
3 Annotated Bibliography Office of the Surgeon General (US), et al. "Barriers to Breastfeeding in the United States." Nih.gov, Office of the Surgeon General (US), 2011, www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK52688/ . When it comes to breastfeeding, there are many barriers to the process in itself. Having a lack of knowledge of how to properly produce and nurse to keep the baby healthy makes it seem hard making mother’s stop early. This can also cause lactation problems that completely end the chances of breastfeeding. Being easily swayed by the social norms, and being embarrassed may make a mother very uncomfortable with breastfeeding. Another barrier is having no support system to rely on causing a failure in successful breastfeeding. Knowing the barriers to breastfeeding can be essential to the success of this paper. Zhuang, Jie et al. "The Impact of Coworker Support and Stigma on Breastfeeding after Returning to Work." Journal of Applied Communication Research 46.4 (2018): 491–508. Web. This study is a cross sectional survey including one thousand working women, who disclosed their fairness of their opportunities to breastfeed at work. Evidence showed that coworkers lack support, the unfair breaks and the terrible attitudes given with the stigma of breastfeeding. The lack of appropriate breaks and lack of support resulted in a barrier to breastfeeding. The data shown in this study showed that the organizations were more than capable to implement the mother- friendly breastfeeding environments. This is important to show that there is a lack of caring for the women who breastfeed.
