Summary

Birth enables women to assume the role of parent, but experiencing labor pain is seen as a very stressful event. Birth pain is described as one of the most severe pains women experience throughout their lives. Different pharmacological and non-pharmacological methods are used to cope with labor pain. Non-pharmacological coping includes physiological coping (such as breathing techniques, relaxation, postural changes, and movement during labor), psychological coping (including social support, increasing self-efficacy, and increasing self-confidence), and cognitive coping (including distraction, illustration). , and focus). Birth self-efficacy refers to the mother's confidence or perception in her own ability to give birth, which may influence her future birth choices. Women with high efficacy expectations (i.e., high confidence regarding childbirth) may use cognitive coping behaviors to cope with labor pain and therefore reduce the likelihood of medical intervention.It has been found that a woman's confidence in her ability to cope with childbirth contributes significantly to her perception of pain during labor and can foster a positive perception of birth. Pregnant women with low self-efficacy also have low self-confidence during birth, which negatively affects their ability to take an active role during birth and causes an increase in cesarean delivery rates. Various approaches such as antenatal training, cognitive behavioral approach, and psychoeducation program are used to reduce the negative consequences that fear of birth may cause and to help pregnant women cope with the fear of birth and increase birth self-efficacy. One of the approaches that include these strategies is seen as the motivational interviewing method. The motivational interviewing method is a goal-oriented and more participant-centered counseling approach that aims to facilitate and activate participants' intrinsic motivation to change their behavior. Motivational interviewing is a method that encourages the participant to think about changes that can be made, rather than the counselor offering suggestions. The basic concepts of motivational interviewing are that the participant recognizes and accepts the need to make changes in their lives; This approach encourages participants to consider whether they are ready to change their behavior.
