How to ensure the psychological health of IVF?
IVF refers to the babies that are bred in the process of in vitro fertilization through assisted reproductive technology. The presentation of this reproductive mode is a result of modern science and technology. However, compared with natural pregnancy, IVF may face mental health problems. Therefore, we need to take a series of measures to ensure the psychological health of IVF.
Professional consultation and support
Parents of IVF usually suffer from great pressure and anxiety. They may worry about whether the baby can successfully conceive, whether the baby can be healthy, or even whether they can really become parents. Therefore, it is very important to provide professional consultation and support.
First of all, IVF hospitals should be equipped with full-time psychological consultants to provide emotional support and information consultation. These consultants need professional knowledge and experience to understand and cope with the special difficulties and pressures faced by IVF families. At the same time, the hospital can also organize group discussions between parents, so that they can exchange and share experiences with each other, which will positively promote their psychology.
In addition, parents will also face emotional fluctuations and psychological pressure during IVF, and they may feel anxious, depressed or hopeless. Therefore, the hospital should actively guide the parents of infants to receive psychological treatment or counseling to help them actively face challenges and maintain mental health.
The Importance of Children's Psychological Education
IVF babies may face some psychological problems during their growth, such as confusion of identity, fragile self-esteem and curiosity about their own origins. Therefore, the intervention in children's psychological education is very critical.
First, IVF hospitals can organize appropriate psychological education courses to teach children positive psychological attitudes and ways to cope with difficulties. Such education courses can help children establish a positive self-image and provide skills to cope with external pressure.
Secondly, parents should play the role of partner in the process of children's growth while assuming the responsibility of education. They should conduct psychological communication with children, pay attention to and respond to their emotional needs. In addition, the construction of parent-child relationship is also an important part. Parents should provide a stable family environment and give children good growth support in love and care.
Social support and cultivation of adaptability
Although the birth of IVF is a technological innovation, their survival and development in society need adaptability. Therefore, measures to provide social support and foster adaptability are crucial.
First of all, IVF hospitals can establish parents' bodies, so that they can establish mutual assistance relationships with each other by sharing experiences and confiding their thoughts. Such social support can help them reduce anxiety and stress and increase confidence in IVF.
Secondly, hospitals should cooperate with all sectors of society to promote the acceptance and integration of IVF in society. This can be achieved through educational institutions, community organizations, children's activity centers and other channels to provide a good social environment for IVF babies and cultivate their social ability and adaptability.
