Abstract: Women within the first 12 months after birth often do not seek professional help for post-childbirth morbidities. This systematic review uses the Behavioural Model of Health Services Use (BMSHU) to assess the barriers and facilitators to women's help-seeking from health professionals during the first twelve months after childbirth. A qualitative meta-aggregation was used for the review. Systematic searching of Medline via Ovid, CINAHL, EMBASE and Web of Science revealed an initial 691 papers, of which 48 were reviewed. Nine qualitative papers, peer-reviewed, English papers and published from 2000 to 2017, were identified. Studies selected according to the pre-defined protocol were assessed using The Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Appraisal Tools (JBIQARI). Seventy-five findings were identified from the approved articles and aggregated into seven categories. Key themes that emerged were that women did not seek help because they accepted problems as a part of the motherhood role or because they feared being judged negatively. Women shared their issues with family and friends as trusted people. Low health literacy was a barrier to seeking help, as was lack of access to proper care and poor advice from families. The women's cultural context was an essential influence in whether or not they sought help. According to BMSHU, a model of key influences on women's help-seeking for maternal morbidities introduced.

Abstract: To identify the health problems that women feel require help and subsequent help-seeking behaviour during the 12 months period after childbirth. Many women experience physical and mental health problems after childbirth, but there is a gap in understanding how they perceive their health after childbirth. Studies suggested they are inhibited in expressing their needs and so seek informal rather than professional help for their health problems. A mixed method concept mapping study. Two groups of Australian women were recruited by an online platform and purposive s ling (N = 81) in 2017-2018, based on an established concept mapping methodology. A first group created 83 brainstorm statements about post-childbirth health problems and help-seeking and a second group sorted and rated the statements based on their perception of the prevalence of the issues and the help-seeking advice they would offer to others. Bradshaw`s Taxonomy of Needs was used to theoretically underpins the explanation of the results of women's felt need after childbirth. Multidimensional scaling resulted in six clusters of issues which were categorized into three domains: 'health issues and care', 'support' and 'fitness'. Despite being directly asked, about two-thirds of the women did not report experiencing any health problems. Our findings showed women had a broader perception of healthcare needs which included support and fitness. There is a potential gap in services for women who do not have good social support. Family and friends were a key source of help-seeking. Post-childbirth routine care was focused on infant care and limited to the first 6 weeks after childbirth. The content of current post-childbirth care must be reviewed.
