چکیده

Intuition is defines as knowledge acquisition often without interpretation or the use of logical reasoning [1]. It is also termed as gut feeling, sixth sense, clues, experience, rational thinking, autonomous decision making and inner self. Intuition is a very individualized feeling about a particular person, or a situation; and, as health care providers being midwives and nurses, we most of the time use intuition to plan interventions. Surprisingly, most of the time we are correct; one of the reason behind may be years of experience practicing in a similar situation. As midwives and nurses move along from the novice to expert level, use of intuition builds up from analytical approach to a more of a deliberative rationalization. Hence, intuition can be learnt and strengthened as an ongoing process.
