Abstract

Floria Vill

Pregnancy is a time of profound physical, emotional, and psychological change. While it can be a joyful and exciting period, it can also be a source of significant stress for many expectant mothers. Stress during pregnancy is not only common but can also have far-reaching consequences for both maternal and fetal health. High levels of stress can contribute to complications such as preterm birth, low birth weight, and developmental issues in the child. Therefore, managing stress effectively is crucial for improving perinatal health outcomes. This article explores the causes and impacts of stress during pregnancy and provides a comprehensive guide to effective techniques for stress management. By adopting these strategies, expectant mothers can promote their well-being and that of their unborn child, contributing to a healthier pregnancy and improved neonatal outcomes.
