Abstract

Intimate partner violence (IPV) during pregnancy negatively affects both maternal and infant health, yet gaps remain in understanding factors that maintain violence and/or promote resilience within the context of mothering. Nine focus groups were conducted with pregnant and/or IPV-exposed women (n = 17) and service providers (n = 26) working with these women in Nuevo León, Mexico. Thematic analysis of the focus group data revealed the detrimental impact of cultural norms that prioritize the relationship with women's partners, marriage, and family above women's dignity. Participants also identified ways that values regarding motherhood function as motivation for women to pursue a life without violence.

"我的十字架"：墨西哥孕妇在亲密伴侣暴力背景下的母性。

孕期亲密伴侣暴力（IPV）会对母婴健康产生负面影响，但人们对维持暴力和/或促进母性复原力的因素的了解仍然存在差距。我们与墨西哥新莱昂州的孕妇和/或遭受 IPV 的妇女（17 人）以及为这些妇女提供服务的服务提供者（26 人）进行了九次焦点小组讨论。对焦点小组数据的专题分析表明，文化规范将妇女与伴侣、婚姻和家庭的关系置于妇女尊严之上，从而产生了有害影响。与会者还指出了有关母性的价值观如何成为妇女追求无暴力生活的动力。
