Farklı İki Coğrafik Bölgede Yaşayan Gebelerin Duygu İfadeleri ve Gebeliğe Uyum Durumları: Macaristan ve Türkiye Örneği

Abstract

Amaç: Gebelik kadında normal bir olay olarak görülmekle beraber, fiziksel, ruhsal ve sosyal yönden değişimler de yaşanabilmektedir. Çalışma farklı iki coğrafik bölgede yaşayan kadınların duygu ifadeleri ve gebeliğe uyum durumlarının incelenmesi amacı ile yapılmıştır.

Gereç ve Yöntem: Tanımlayıcı ve kesitsel araştırma, Türkiye ve Macaristan’da kadın doğum polikliniğine başvuran, kendisinde ve bebeğinde sağlık problem olmayan 211 gebe ile yürütülmüştür (Türkiye = 112; Macaristan = 99). Veriler, Kişisel Bilgi Formu, gebeliğe uyum ve gebelik ile ilgili duygu ifadelerini değerlendirmeye yönelik soru formu ile toplanmıştır.

Bulgular: Araştırmaya Macaristan’dan katılan gebe kadınlar, ağrılı doğum süreci (%67.7), bebeklerinin sağlıklı olmayacağı (%86.9), Türkiye’den katılan gebe kadınlar ise bebeklerini doğuramayacakları (%49.1) konusunda endişe taşıyorlardı. Macaristan'daki gebe kadınların yarısından fazlası hamileliğin sürdürülmesi, doğumun gerçekleşmesi ve bebeğin sağlığı ile ilgili endişelerini dile getirirken, Türkiye'de daha az sayıda gebe kadın bu konuda endişelerini dile getirdi. Türkiye'deki gebe kadınlar, Macaristan'dakilere göre doğum ağrılarından daha fazla korktuklarını ifade etmişlerdir.

Sonuç: İki farklı bölgede yaşayan gebelerin duygu ifadeleri ve gebeliğe uyumları arasında farklılıklar vardır. Bu farklılıklar, kültürler arası bakım girişimlerinin planlanmasının ve uygulanmasının önemini göstermektedir.

Expression of Feelings by Pregnant Women Living in Two Different Geographic Regions and Their Adaptation to Pregnancy: Hungary and Turkey Cases

Abstract

Objective: While pregnancy is seen as a normal condition in pregnant women, physical, psychological and social changes can also be experienced. This study was conducted to investigate expression of feelings by pregnant women living in two different geographic regions and their adaptation to pregnancy.

Materials and Methods: This descriptive and cross-sectional study was carried out with 211 pregnant women who were admitted to gynaecology clinics in Turkey and Hungary, and who had no health problems in themselves and in their babies (Turkey = 112; Hungary = 99). Data were collected by personal information form and questionnaire to assess women’s expressions of feelings related to pregnancy and adaptation to pregnancy.

Results: The participating pregnant women in Hungary had concerns that they would not be able to give birth to their babies because of a painful birth process (67.7%), that their babies would not be healthy (86.9%), whereas the pregnant women in Turkey had concerns that they would not be able to give birth to their babies (49.1%). While more than half of the pregnant women in Hungary expressed their concerns about maintaining the pregnancy, giving birth and the health of the baby, less number of pregnant women in Turkey expressed their concerns. Pregnant women in Turkey expressed that they were afraid of labour pains more than those in Hungary.

Conclusion: There are differences between moods and adaptations to pregnancy of pregnant women who live in two different areas. These differences show the importance of planning and implementation of transcultural care initiatives.
