One common standard of the U.S. through biomedical literature is that postpartum is considered to take six to eight weeks of recovery. Research is suggesting a more accurate time frame of nine months to a year (Kanotra et al., 2007; Gjerdingen et al., 1993, P. 283; & Fahey et al., 2013). There are psychosocial components, infant demands, and decreased self-care that must be considered as critical events requiring health promotion and intervention for men and women (Fahey & Shenassa, 2013). Health promotion literature states that the health of women can and should be optimized over the continuum of the first year while raising an infant (Fahey & Shenassa, 2013). There is long-term impact of neglected maternal health problems. Neglected maternal health is positively linked to negative outcomes for the family unit and child development. According to Nelson-Coffey, S. K., Killingsworth, M., Layous, K., Cole, S. W., and Lyubomirsky, S. (2019), when dads spend time with their kids, they are likely to experience increased sense of social connectedness, greater role satisfaction and confidence as a father, experience greater sense of autonomy, and increased happiness. They are also, less likely to exhibit signs of depression. Fathers supporting mothers by initiating infant care tasks allows her recovery time. Having both partners involved and supported throughout the postpartum recovery has far reaching benefits. The goal of the capstone project was to provide the support that is evidently lacking for this population. This is achieved by the completion of the guide to parenting resources.
