The mother’s narration about her child in the prenatal periodThe paper focuses on one aspect of the mother-child relation: the mother’s narration about her child during the prenatal period. The aim has been to establish how the mother builds a story about her developing child, which  elements are common to most mothers’ narratives and which variables make the narratives different. In order to answer these questions, a narrative method has been used in a study involving 32 women between the 16th and 37th weeks of pregnancy. Qualitative and quantitative analysis of the gathered stories shows that the mothers-to-be attribute a meaning and intentions not only to their children’s behaviours in their wombs but also to their own notions of those behaviours, and they base their reactions on them. Furthermore, the mothers arrange their expectations and beliefs concerning their children into coherent stories, which is a vital element of entering motherhood. In this way, they familiarize  hemselves with the unknown and prepare themselves for performing the new role. In the annex to the paper, there are two narratives analysed thoroughly in terms of their content and structure.

In this study, I investigated parenting concerns and worries in parents during cancer treatment and examined the psychometric properties of the Polish version of the Parenting Concerns Questionnaire. Reliability, as well as factorial and convergent validity, were analyzed. A total sample size of 145 parents during cancer treatment (parents of children aged 18 years or younger at the time of the survey) participated in the study. The study was an online survey method conducted between January 2019 and December 2021. Parents were sent a survey link and were requested to fill the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-10), the Parenting Stress Index (PSI-3-SF), the SF-36v2 Health Survey (SF-36v2), and the Family Resilience Assessment Scale (FRAS). The author received permission for using these questionnaires in online research. Confirmatory factor analysis of the Polish version of the Parenting Concerns Questionnaire did not confirm the original three-factor structure. However, the standardized factor loadings for the three factors were moderate to high. Additionally, apart from high-reliability estimates, this instrument proved to have good convergent and discriminant validity for all three factors. The PCQ-PL demonstrated adequate convergent validity with expected correlations with parenting stress, perceived stress, quality of life, and family resilience. The results suggest that the PCQ-PL is a reliable and relatively valid measurement tool to evaluate the level of parental concerns in Polish patients. The PCQ can be a useful tool to recognize parents with cancer who might need psychological support regarding combining the role of a parent and oncological patient.

The aim of this paper is to present theories, current research on the forms and importance of a mother’s communication with her child in a prenatal period, and discuss the results of own research in this area. In the research, the Communication with a Prenatal Child Questionnaire was used which measures six forms of prenatal communication. Prenatal communication is significant for both a mother and a child in her womb. Thanks to prenatal communication the mother can explore more consciously the challenges of pregnancy which are preparatory tasks for the role of a parent and the child develops better. The mother learns how to express her feelings non-verbally through empathy, facial expressions, touch, synchrony, and intuition. After childbirth, she can use the forms of communication from the prenatal period.

The article describes the procedure of adaptation and psychometric parameters of the Polish version of the Parental Stress Scale (PSS). The PSS sees parenting as a source of both strength and stress. Therefore, assessing parenting experiences with the PSS enables one to measure both the level of parenting stress and parental satisfaction. The PSS has been shown to be reliable and moderately correlated with standardized measures in expected directions, suggesting its validity (Berry & Jones, 1995). In this research, we investigated parenting stress in a non-clinical, population-based sample of parents and examined the psychometric properties of the Polish version of the PSS. We analysed reliability, as well as factorial and convergent validity. Two online studies were conducted. In Study 1, parents (126 mothers and 124 fathers) were sent a survey link and requested to fill in the PSS, the Perceived Stress Scale, the Parenting Stress Index, the SF-36v2 Health Survey, and the Family Resilience Assessment Scale. Study 2 was conducted to check the PSS structure once again and assess its reliability. Parents (111 mothers and 41 fathers) filled out the Polish 16-item version of the PSS (PSS-PL). The PSS-PL demonstrated adequate convergent validity with expected correlations with parenting stress, perceived stress, quality of life, and family resilience. Our results suggest that the PSS-PL is a reliable and valid measurement tool to evaluate the level of parental stress in Polish parents. Implications of the findings and study limitations are discussed.
