Results: It was determined that the beliefs and tendencies of pregnant women who had the living in the city, desired pregnancy, planned vaginal delivery, received information about birth, and exercised regularly during pregnancy had higher beliefs and tendencies toward normal delivery, and as the gestational weeks progressed, the traumatic childbirth perception increased (p<0.05). In addition, it was determined that the traumatic childbirth perception increased in pregnant women living in the city (p<0.001).
Conclusion: This research may guide the clinical approaches and the design of future studies by revealing the necessity of planning holistic care by determining the risk factors that may create the perception of traumatic birth and negatively affect the beliefs of normal delivery among pregnant women.

Amaç: Bu araştırma primiparların travmatik doğum algısı ve normal doğum inançlarını etkileyen faktörlerin belirlenmesi amacıyla yapılmıştır.
Yöntem: Kesitsel-analitik nitelikteki bu araştırma Türkiye’nin güneyinde bulunan bir ildeki bir kamu hastanesinin NST birimine başvuran ve araştırmaya katılmayı gönüllü olarak kabul eden 414 gebe ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırmanın verileri "Gebe Tanıtım Formu", " Travmatik Doğum Algısı Ölçeği (TDAÖ) " ve “Normal Doğuma İnanç Ölçeği (NDİÖ)" ile toplanmıştır.
Bulgular: Araştırmada gebelerin yaşadıkları yer ile Travmatik Doğum Algısı Ölçeği’nden ve Normal Doğuma İnanç Ölçeği’nden aldıkları toplam puan ortalamaları arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir fark tespit edilmiştir (p<0.05; p<0.001). Gebelerin istenilen bir gebelik yaşamaları, planladıkları doğum şekli, doğuma ilişkin bilgi alma durumu ve gebelikte düzenli egzersiz yapmaları ile Normal Doğuma İnanç Ölçeği toplam puan ortalamaları arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir fark tespit edilmiştir (p<0.05). Ayrıca gebelerin gebelik haftaları ile Travmatik Doğum Algısı Ölçeği toplam puan ortalamaları arasında pozitif yönde istatistiksel olarak anlamlı zayıf düzeyde bir ilişki bulunmuştur (p<0.001).
Sonuç: Kentte yaşayan gebelerin travmatik doğum algıları ile normal doğuma inanç ve eğilimlerinin daha yüksek olduğu belirlenmiştir. İstenilen bir gebelik yaşayan, vajinal doğum planlayan, doğuma ilişkin bilgi alan ve gebelikte düzenli egzersiz yapan gebelerin normal doğuma ilişkin inanç ve eğilimlerinin daha yüksek olduğu ayrıca gebelik haftaları arttıkça gebelerin travmatik doğum algılarının arttığı belirlenmiştir.
