SUMMARY:

The perinatal period is permeated with expectations regarding childbirth and the experience of the pregnant woman with
the baby, especially for primiparous women, who are experiencing for the first time the
imminent birth of a child. According to the literature, it is common to observe
psychological disturbances such as stress, fear, anxiety and depression during the period
perinatal care and on these disorders can be aggravated by external factors and situations, such as
the pandemic caused by Covid-19. As a prevention and assistance strategy for these
women can use perinatal education as a model of health care
mental health for pregnant women. In this sense, this work aimed to propose a
intervention with a mental training tool, from a multimodal program
of perinatal education. Participated in the research 104 primiparous pregnant women who were evaluated
variables that directly impact the childbirth experience through the application of a
pre- and post-test after the online meetings held and we compared the data found after
the intervention having the Covid-19 fear scale as a parameter to compare the
results. To assess participants for the program's impact on fear,
anxiety, depression and stress, the Reliable Change Index (RCI) statistical test was used,
in addition to descriptive treatment of the data. As a main result, it was observed that the
expectations created during the pandemic, influenced by fear and feelings of insecurity
with this scenario, they had a negative impact on the experience of childbirth. On the other hand, negative childbirth experiences explain part of the symptoms of postpartum anxiety and depression.
study, 07 psychometric scales were developed for the Brazilian context that may
be used by the scientific community to assess pregnant women and prepare
care and assistance during this gestational period.
