Conditions

  • Perception of Traumatic Birth

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

psychoeducation

The nurse/midwife-led psychoeducation intervention aims to encourage pregnant women to express their feelings about childbirth. It also provides a counseling framework to help women identify and overcome the distressing elements of childbirth. Psychoeducation allows pregnant women to obtain complete, evidence-based information about labor and to discuss their feelings and thoughts about the method of delivery and birth. Providing evidence-based information by nurses/midwives during psychoeducation helps pregnant women make informed decisions about their birth preferences. In addition to evidence-based information, the psychoeducation intervention includes discussing myths and misconceptions, increasing social support, reinforcing positive coping strategies, and focusing on problem solutions. Nurses/midwives encourage pregnant women to develop a positive birth plan through psychoeducation.
