Pages

  177-182

Abstract

 Background: Fear of Childbirth (FOC) is a common and complicated problem among Nulliparous pregnant women. Objectives: The aim of this study was to compare the effects of Expressive writing and neutral writing on FOC in Nulliparous pregnant women. Methods: A randomized controlled trial was conducted on 90 Nulliparous pregnant women referred to selected comprehensive health centers in Isfahan for prenatal care from May 1 to September 30, 2021. The participants were recruited consecutively and randomly allocated to two groups to perform either Expressive writing or neutral writing at home for 20 min daily for 7 days. Before and after the intervention, FOC was measured using the Wijma Delivery Expectancy/Experience Questionnaire. Paired t-test, independent t-test, and Chi-square were used for statistical analysis. Results: The mean age of pregnant women was 29. 93 ±,5. 20 and 29. 18 ±,5. 65 years in the usual and Expressive writing groups, respectively. The mean FOC scores of the women in the neutral writing and Expressive writing groups were 36. 31 ±,7. 35 and 35. 96 ±,6. 80, respectively, at baseline (P = 0. 81) and changed to 34. 98 ±,8. 18 and 31. 58 ±,7. 99, respectively, at the end of the study (P < 0. 04). The paired t-test showed that the mean FOC score of the Expressive writing group decreased significantly at the end of the study (P < 0. 001), whereas it did not change significantly in the neutral writing group (P = 0. 11). Conclusion: Expressive writing can reduce FOC in Nulliparous pregnant women and can be used as an effective, low-cost, simple, and accessible method.
