Effect of MBSR Training on Childbirth Fear, Bonding and Breastfeeding in Adolescent Pregnant Women
Recruiting now · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Pregnancy in Adolescence, Fear, Mother-Child Relations, Mindfulness, Breastfeeding
In brief
This randomized controlled study aims to evaluate the effect of Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) training given to adolescent pregnant women and their partners on fear of childbirth, maternal and paternal bonding, and breastfeeding success. Adolescent pregnancy is associated with increased stress, fear of childbirth and parenting anxiety, which negatively affect mother-infant and father-infant bonding and breastfeeding outcomes. MBSR training is expected to reduce fear of childbirth, strengthen maternal and paternal bonding, and improve breastfeeding success in adolescent pregnant women and their partners compared to the control group receiving routine care.
