“…Although the pregnant women are invited to the classes regardless of their education level, the higher demand by pregnant women with higher education indicates that we should focus more on the less educated. The rate of women that were working was stated as 37.10% by Turgut et al [12] and in our study, the rate was 28.7%. The same study stated that women with their first pregnancy participated more (72.9%) and the results were similar in our study (73.3%).…”

“…Most of them (94.7%) stated that they had a plan and they thought walking/moving would reduce the pain the most. In another study, breathing exercises were preferred the most by the participants [12]. Before the class, the participants were hesitant about the vaginal delivery but after the class, the rate of preference for vaginal delivery increased to 97.2%.…”

Objectives: The purpose of the study is to determine the impacts of the prenatal classes on pregnant women while determining the type of delivery and coping with pain during delivery. Methods: This study is descriptive. It involves analysis of 247 participants that were selected as samples from a known population of 653 pregnant women who participated in prenatal classes of our hospital. The prenatal classes took place for 3 weeks and 16 hours in total. They filled the forms regarding the class activities before and after the class. The data were evaluated by using SPSS 16.0 packaged software. Results: The mean age of the pregnant women was 27.50 ± 4.60 years. The women, who had their first pregnancy, were 73.3%. Before the class, 62.8% declared that they were planning to have a vaginal delivery. The ones, who stated that they were afraid of pain, were 78.9%. In interviews after the classes, 89.5% of the participants stated that the classes affected their choice of delivery type. The rate of participants that found classes relieving for their anxiety and concerns was 94.70%. The rate of participants that had a vaginal delivery was 81.80%. The influence of the prenatal classes while determining the type of delivery was statistically significant. (p < 0.001 by Mc Nemar test). Conclusions: Participation with the prenatal class removes the anxiety of the pregnant women, encourages them to have vaginal delivery and contributes to decreasing the rate of cesarean sections.

“…The results of the statistics on the NCF in Turkey and the studies on the pregnancy period in Turkey indicate that it should be explained to men and women who have decided to become a family that child development is multidimensional, that many variables affect the development, and that the development process of the unborn baby should begin while in the mother's womb. In a study on the knowledge levels of those who were educated at the pregnancy school and were also pregnant, it was found that the knowledge level of pregnant women increased significantly with the education provided, and those with their first pregnancy and university graduates participated in pregnant education at a higher rate (27).…”

“…In this increase, the Ministry of Health's support of pregnant women in the direction of vaginal birth, raising awareness of the public through the media and other channels, and the training programs of health professionals working in the field of obstetrics, and their awareness of their duties, authorities, and responsibilities on this issue have been found to be effective (28). Today, prenatal classes aim to prepare expectant mothers and fathers for birth, to provide them with information about pregnancy, birth, postpartum period, and healthy growth of the baby, and to impart knowledge and skills so that they can adopt their new roles (27). The studies carried out in pregnant schools in Turkey mainly focused on reproductive health, preparation for childbirth, birth types, etc (29).…”

BackgroundThe Nurturing Care Framework (NCF), which has been emphasized by the World Health Organization (WHO) in recent years and is among the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), expresses the conditions created to promote early childhood development (ECD). These conditions aim to provide opportunities for children in the Good Health, Adequate Nutrition, Responsive Caregiving, Security and Safety, and Opportunities for Early Learning (5 Components) by caregivers, primarily from low and middle-income countries (LMICs). The aim of this study is to examine the knowledge and awareness of expectant mothers and fathers in Turkey, about the NCF.MethodsIn this study, a cross-sectional, analytical research design was used. Nurturing Care (NC) knowledge and awareness levels of expectant mothers and fathers in the 2nd and 3rd trimesters of pregnancy were determined via the online form of “The Knowledge of Nurturing Care Inventory (KNCI)” prepared by the researchers. This form consists of 60 questions describing the 5 components mentioned above. The sample contains a total of 103 people, 91 (88.3%) women, and 12 (11.7%) men.ResultsAmong the findings, the highest mean of knowledge level (13.76 ± 1.22) was found in Responsive Caregiving, and the lowest mean of knowledge level (4.35 ± 1.83) was found in Opportunities for Early Learning. The general level of knowledge on NC was found to vary statistically significantly depending on gender in favor of the women [t(101) = 3.27, p < .05], depending on educational status in favor of those with university and graduate education [F(2, 100) = 3.481, p < .05], depending on participation in pregnancy school training in favor of those who attended [t(101) = 2.349, p < .05], and depending on knowledge on how to support development in favor of those who know how to support [t(101) = 2.370, p < .05].ConclusionsAs a result, expectant parents need information and support about the period when children can acquire the basic developmental milestones and about the developmental risk indicators. More research is needed to implement the NCF starting from the preconception period, especially in LMICs, so that the opportunities in early childhood (which is the time period when the brain architecture is shaped, and development is the fastest) are not missed.

“…Pregnant women receive routine antenatal care in family health centers or benefit from group training in pregnancy education programs in some hospitals. It has been reported that group training is useful for pregnant women, but there are problems involved, such as the limited number of pregnant women who have access to the service, the implementation of applications only in some hospitals, lack of a standard education model, and environmental limitations (13)(14)(15). It is feasible then that women can be provided with health information by means of new methods that are easily available and require no limits put on place or time.…”

Objective:The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of text messaging and group training on health care behaviors of pregnant women. Methods:A three group non-randomized controlled design was used in this study. The study was conducted with pregnant women who applied to four family health centers in different regions of Istanbul between November 2016 and June 2017. The Health Practices in Pregnancy Scale (HPPS) was used to evaluate the health behaviors of pregnant. In total, 150 pregnant women were included in the study, which contained text messages group, education group, control group. The text message group received 105 messages in total, 4 text messages per week for 6 months. The education group attended three weeks of group sessions held for pregnant women. The control group received routine prenatal care in the family health center. Results:The health practice of the text message and education group were significantly higher than that of the control group. In addition, the text message group health practice scores significantly increased posttest (p<0.05), whereas the education and control groups health practice scores did not significantly change (p>0.05). Conclusion:Text messages could be an effective education method for improving the health practices of pregnant women.
