“…However, in our study, we found that women in the second trimester both case and control groups had a higher average PAI score when compared to second, third, trimester. In contrast to our study, Tsartsara and Johnson (2006) found that maternalinfant attachment increased significantly in the third trimester. There was no statistically significant difference between the gestational week and prenatal attachment of the women in the case and control group (p <0.05).…”

The childbirth education classes are a routine service in the developed countries, in order to inform the parents about the healthy development of the baby and to prepare the mother and father candidates in the birth and to start the new routine in the developing countries. This study was conducted to determine the effect of childbirth education classes on prenatal attachment.This descriptive casecontrol group research has been carried out between July-December 2016. The sample group consisted of a total of 246 pregnant women, 113 of whom were in the case group (participated in childbirth education classes) and 133 of whom were in the control group (didn't participated in childbirth education classes). In collecting the data, "Personal Information Form" and "Prenatal Attachment Inventory (PAI)" were used. The data of the case group were collected after the training was over. SPSS 15.0 statistical package program was used in the analysis of the data.The mean age of the case group was 25.36 ± 4.47 and the control group was 26.87 ± 5.47 in the study. It was determined that 23.9% of the pregnant women in the case group had graduated from secondary school, 84.1% did not work, 74.3% were three trimester, and 86.7% were planned pregnancies. It was determined that 21.1% of the pregnant women in the control group had graduated from secondary school, 87.2% did not work, 91.7% were three trimester and 79.7% had planned pregnancy. No statistically significant difference was found between the case and control groups in terms of descriptive and obstetric characteristics (p> 0.05). The mean PAI score of the case group was 38.30 ± 9.64 and the control group was 34.10 ± 10.52, and the difference was statistically significant (p = 0.001). It was determined that the prenatal attacment levels of the pregnants participating in the childbirth education class were higher.

Quanto à função sexual, os escores médios do FSFI foram de 21,1 e 16,4 (p<0,05), respectivamente nos Grupos AER e Controle, embora apenas no âmbito do desejo (média: 3,4±1,3 para o Grupo AER e 3,7±1,1 para o Grupo Controle) não houvesse diferença significante (p=0,1). Observamos que, independentemente de a gestante ter ou não histórico de AER, quanto maior o escore de depressão, menor o escore de sexualidade (r=-0,3). CONCLUSÕES: Gestantes do Grupo AER apresentam depressão com frequência duas vezes mais elevada e função sexual mais comprometida. Há associação inversa entre depressão e função sexual. AbstractPURPOSE: It was to compare pregnant women who experienced recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA) and those who did not in terms of the prevalence of depressive symptoms and sexual behavior. METHODS: A prospective case-control study was carried out. The first group consisted of women with RSA and the second, of primigravidae. The Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) and one more questionnaire, developed by the authors themselves, about emotional aspects resulting from sexual intercourse during pregnancy were applied. The Student t-test was used to compare quantitative variables with normal distribution, and categorical variables were compared by the chi-square test or Fisher's exact test. The level of significance was set at p<0.05. RESULTS: The BDI showed (19.9 versus 10.0%) approximately twice the incidence of depression in the RSA group. Regarding sexual function, the average scores of the FSFI were 21.1 and 16.4 (p<0.05) for the study and control groups, respectively, although no significant difference was observed only in the desire domain (average 3.4±1.3 for the RSA group and 3.7±1.1 for control group) (p=0.1). We observed that, regardless the presence or absence of an RSA history among the pregnant women, the higher the depression score, the lower the sexuality score (r=-0,3). CONCLUSIONS: The RSA pregnant group often experiences twice higher depression and more impaired sexual function. There is an inverse association between depression and sexual function.
