概要 The purpose of this study was to clarify the relationship between mothers’ understanding of their physical condition and fetal condition and maternal anxiety during pregnancy. The participants were 76 first-time mothers with a gestational age of at least 36 weeks. The results revealed that women who understood their physical condition, changes in mental health, better lifestyle, safe childbirth, and fetal growth were less likely to experience anxiety than those who did not. The understanding of fetal growth, safe childbirth, and life with an infant after birth were also associated with a significantly increased fetal attachment (p=0.023, p=0.025, and p=0.000, respectively). The understanding of mothers’ physical condition and fetal condition might be necessary for promoting fetal attachment and reducing anxiety during pregnancy. Therefore, the midwife must sufficiently explain such information to pregnant women.
