Abstract:

Fear of childbirth is an important and prevalent problem during pregnancy and delivery. Self-efficacy of childbirth is one of the factors playing an important role in the fear of delivery. This study aimed to determine the relationship between the fear and self-efficacy of childbirth during labor in primipara women. This descriptive and analytical study was conducted on 100 primipara women in Ommolbanin Hospital, Mashhad, Iran, during 2017. Data were analyzed in SPSS software using descriptive statistics and Pearson’s correlation coefficient. According to the results, the mean scores of fear and self-efficacy of delivery were reported to be 48.9±14.2 and 220.5±54.9, respectively. In addition, there was a reverse association between the scores of fear of childbirth and self-efficacy of delivery using Pearson’s results (r=-0.44, P<0.001). Therefore, it is recommended that interventions be carried out to decrease the fear of childbirth.
