Mindfulness-Based Intervention in Primiparous Pregnant Women

This randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate the effect of a mindfulness-based intervention on childbirth self-efficacy, fear of childbirth, and self-compassion among primiparous pregnant women. Eligible pregnant women will be randomly assigned to either a mindfulness intervention group or a control group receiving routine antenatal education and standard prenatal care. The intervention program will consist of eight sessions delivered over four weeks. Outcomes will be assessed before and after the intervention using validated measurement tools. The findings may contribute to the development of effective psychosocial interventions to improve maternal well-being during pregnancy.

The Effect of Mindfulness-Based Childbirth Education on Fear of Birth, Prenatal Stress, and Childbirth Self-Efficacy

This randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate the effect of mindfulness practices integrated into childbirth preparation education on fear of childbirth, prenatal stress, and childbirth self-efficacy in pregnant women.Participants will be randomly assigned either to the childbirth education group with mindfulness practices or to the standard childbirth education/control group. Results will be evaluated using the prenatal self-assessment childbirth fear subscale, the perceived stress scale before childbirth, and the self-efficacy scale during labor before and after intervention.This study aims to provide evidence on whether mindfulness practices in childbirth preparation classes affect pregnant women's fear of childbirth, prenatal stress, and childbirth self-efficacy.
