Aim: This study was conducted to determine the relationship between pregnant women's spiritual well-being levels and their pregnancy-related stress. Material and Methods: The sample of the descriptive and correlational study consisted of 250 pregnant women aged 18 years and over with the 12th week of pregnancy and above who were admitted to the Obstetrics and Gynecology outpatient clinic of a Training and Research Hospital between November 2020 and April 2021 and who agreed to participate in the study. The data were obtained by collecting the Personal Information Form, Spiritual Well-Being Scale (SWBS), and Tilburg Pregnancy Distress Scale (TPDS). The SPSS statistical program was used to evaluate the data. Results: The mean age of the pregnant women was 26.5±5.3 years. It was determined that 39.6% of the pregnant women were secondary school graduates, 72% had planned pregnancies, 31.6% were primiparous and 60% were in the third trimester. A statistically significant, negative, and weak relationship was found between the spiritual well-being levels of pregnant women and pregnancy-related stress (r=-0.33, p=0.000). Conclusion: In this study, the spiritual well-being of pregnant women was determined to be high, and pregnancy-related stress was found to be low. However, it was found that as the spiritual well-being of pregnant women increased, their pregnancy-related stress decreased.

Pregnancy is a period in a woman's life with physical, psychological, and social changes. This study aimed to examine the resilience, life satisfaction, and spiritual well-being levels in pregnant women. This descriptive and cross-sectional study was conducted on 380 pregnant women who applied to the obstetrics and gynecology outpatient clinics of a hospital Black Sea region of Türkiye between June and August 2023. The data were collected using an Introductory Information Form, Brief Resilience Scale, Satisfaction with Life Scale, and Spirituality Index of Well-Being. Data analysis was done in the SPSS program. Results showed that the mean resilience and life satisfaction scores of pregnant women were moderate, whereas the mean spiritual well-being scores were at good levels. There was a weak positive correlation between resilience and life satisfaction and a weak negative correlation between spiritual well-being and resilience. Additionally, resilience was higher in first-time pregnant women than those experiencing their second or subsequent pregnancies. Moreover, life satisfaction was higher in women with planned pregnancies and those whose income was equal to their expenses. Finally, spiritual well-being was lower for women older, those with lower education levels, and those with more income than expenses. Resilience, life satisfaction, and spiritual well-being should be evaluated in prenatal follow-ups.
