Online Study of New Mothers' Sleep & Fatigue Needs Participants

Posted Aug 23 2008 3:15pm

Cheryl Jazzar has shared with me that Kathleen Kendall-Tackett and Thomas Hale , in conjunction with the Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center , are conducting a new online survey about mothers' sleep and fatigue. The study is open to all mothers with babies 0-12 months old. They would like to include breastfeeding and non-breastfeeding women, as well as women of all ethnicities and income levels. They hope to document:

  • Where and how much babies sleep
  • Whether mothers who breastfeed and co-sleep are more or less tired than mothers who don't
  • Whether mothers tell their friends, relatives and healthcare providers where their babies sleep
  • If there are ethnic group differences in where babies sleep
  • The role of depression, psychological trauma and difficult birth in mother's ongoing daytime fatigue

The online questionnaire takes 20 to 30 minutes to complete and is confidential. Click here to participate: http://neonatal.ttuhsc.edu/lact
