The literature search highlighted the
need for more research on this topic that is
based in the UK, in order to confidently
generalise the results. The role of fathers in
contributing to their child’s health and
well-being is also often overlooked42,47, but
they can have an important function, as
fathers who have a close and satisfying
relationship with their infant have a
positive influence on maternal attachment
behaviours41. In this literature review, the
only study which explored a paternal
perspective was performed by Jones et al37,
which reflects those found in the literature
search; suggesting the need for further
research in this area, particularly as Jones
et al36 discovered that fathers have quite
different needs from mothers, as supported
by Fegran et al47 and Moehn and Rossetti
