NCT ID NCT07072507
First seen Jul 21, 2026 · Last updated Jul 22, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looks at whether attending childbirth preparation classes with a spouse helps first-time mothers feel more supported, satisfied with their birth, and have more positive birth memories. Pregnant women in their 30th to 32nd week will be split into three groups: classes with their spouse, classes alone, or usual care. Researchers will measure spousal support, birth satisfaction, and how mothers remember their birth experience.
