Telo v poznomoderni družbi: primer nosečnosti in družbenega odnosa do nosečega telesa

Alibegović, Anita (author), Švab, Alenka (mentor)

Nosečnost prinaša številne spremembe, tako na fizični kot tudi duševni ravni. Nekatere ženske so do teh sprememb precej dovzetne, še posebej če gledajo nanje skozi merila sodobne družbe. Le-ta prek številnih medijskih sporočil slika popolno fit telo, ki ga je še posebej v tem obdobju izjemno težko vzdrževati, kaj šele doseči. Cilj naloge je bilo ugotoviti, kako so spremembe svojega telesa v obdobju nosečnosti doživljale ženske same in kakšni so bili odzivi okolice na te spremembe. S pomočjo kvantitativne metode (anonimne spletne ankete) sem uvodoma zastavljene hipoteze preverjala pri ženskah, starih od 27 do 45 let, ki so bile noseče v obdobju zadnjih 5 let. Rezultate sem predstavila grafično in tabelarično ter s pomočjo opisne statistike. Prek analize sem ugotovila, da se večina žensk razmeroma dobro odzove na spremembe svojega telesa v obdobju nosečnosti ter da opazke s strani bližnjih in zdravstvenih delavcev niso tako številne, kot sem pričakovala. Vendar pa je raziskava pomembno opozorila na velik primanjkljaj pri pridobivanju informacij s strani zdravstvenih delavcev. Številne ženske so pogrešale izobraževanja s področja telesnih sprememb , nege kože in telesa ter predvsem informacije v zvezi z obdobjem po porodu.

• Title: The Body in the Late Modern Society: An Example of Pregnancy and Social Attitudes towards a Pregnant Body

Abstract

Pregnancy brings many changes, both on the physical and psychological level. Some women are quite receptive to these changes, especially if they view them according to the criteria of modern society which - through numerous media messages - portrays a perfectly 'fit' physique that is particularly difficult to maintain, let alone obtain, especially during pregnancy. The aim of this thesis was to investigate how women experience the changes in their bodies during pregnancy and how people around them respond to these changes. Using a quantitative method (an anonymous online survey), I tested the hypotheses I had initially set out, with women between 27 and 45 years of age who had been pregnant in the last five years. I presented the results in graphs, tables and descriptive statistics. By the analysis I discovered that the majority of women respond relatively well to changes in their bodies during pregnancy, and that remarks from the people around them and health professionals are not as numerous as I had expected. However, the survey did significantly highlight a major deficit in the information provided by health professionals. A large number of women missed education on body changes, skin and body care, and especially information regarding the post-natal period.
