Breastfeeding includes several triggers for memories of abuse experiences, which will likely influence decisions about breastfeeding and its implementation in daily life. This is important since breastfeeding improves maternal well-being and bonding with the child.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Research aim:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>As breastfeeding strongly influences the long-term health of children, we investigated experiences with breastfeeding in women with a history of CSA.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Data on breastfeeding were collected within a research project designed to compare labor and delivery experiences in women with a history of CSA to women without such antecedents. Data from 85 women having experienced CSA and 170 controls pair-matched for maternal age, children\u2019s age, and nationality were evaluated. The clinical record of pregnancy and a self-administered questionnaire were used to collect data.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Although the prevalence of breastfeeding was similar in women with and without CSA experiences (96.5% vs. 90.6%), women exposed to CSA more often described complications associated with breastfeeding (77.7% vs. 67.1%, p = .08). Mastitis (49.4% vs. 27.6%, p &lt; .01) and pain (29.4% vs. 18.8%, p = .15) were reported significantly more often by women after CSA. For 20% of women after CSA, breastfeeding was a trigger for memories of CSA. Furthermore, 58% of women with CSA reported dissociation when breastfeeding.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>In addition to the growing list of potential health consequences of CSA experience, this experience seems to be associated with an increased number of problems when breastfeeding. However, most women with a history of CSA intend to breastfeed despite particular challenges related to CSA. A support protocol tailored to the specific needs of these women during pregnancy and the lactation period may help to improve breastfeeding and the early mother\u2013child relationship.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/0890334416680789","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,1,14]],"date-time":"2017-01-14T00:51:04Z","timestamp":1484355064000},"page":"119-127","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":42,"title":["Breastfeeding in Women Having Experienced Childhood Sexual Abuse"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"33","author":[{"given":"Constanze","family":"Elfgen","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Breast Centre, University Hospital Z\u00fcrich, Z\u00fcrich, Switzerland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Niels","family":"Hagenbuch","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biostatistics, University of Z\u00fcrich, Z\u00fcrich, Switzerland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Gisela","family":"G\u00f6rres","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Frauennotruf, Aachen, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Emina","family":"Block","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Private dental office, Aachen, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Brigitte","family":"Leeners","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinic for Reproductive Endocrinology, University Hospital Z\u00fcrich, Z\u00fcrich, Switzerland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,1,12]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-0890334416680789","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Beck C.
