Padre comprometido con la crianza temprana desde el primer contacto padre-hijo/a vivido en el nacimiento
Pai comprometido em criar seu filho/a desde o primeiro contato pai-filho/a vivenciado com o parto
Objective: To know how the phenomenon of active paternal upbringing is shown from the father-child contact experience during birth.
Method: Analysis of secondary information from a qualitative study of a phenomenological nature. Transcripts of interviews and focus groups of all the fathers who participated in a father-child contact protocol for a doctoral thesis.
Results: The study revealed the global structure of the phenomenon, whose central axis corresponds to “father who advances towards the integral connection with his child and is committed with parenting”, and its three comprehensive categories: expectations of being a father and actor in parenting; the experience of being a father at birth time; and the everyday of the upbringing.
Conclusion: Prenatal preparation and skin-to-skin contact during birth mobilize the father towards commitment and involvement with the upbringing of his child from the beginning.
