The textual data consisted of notebook records documenting the mothers' experiences during pregnancy, their initial meeting with their infants, the neonatal intensive care unit stay, and the first postpartum year.

Topic modeling identified five to seven topics across each period of the mother's experiences. The topics at first encounter with their babies and neonatal intensive care unit stay were characterized by terms that may reflect apologetic or self\u2010blaming expressions. Conversely, between 6 and 12\u2009months postpartum, the focus was on more routine concerns, such as everyday caregiving.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n
