Brief Summary:
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether an individualized psychoeducational intervention led by an experienced midwife can reduce pregnancy-related anxiety (PrA) in pregnant women during the second and third trimesters. The main questions it aims to answer are:
* Can individualized midwife-led psychoeducation significantly reduce pregnancy-related anxiety levels as measured by the PRAQ-R2 questionnaire?
* Does this intervention improve women's sense of control, competence, and readiness for childbirth?
* Can the intervention reduce preferences for cesarean section without medical indication among low-risk pregnant women?
Participants will:
* Attend 4-6 individual sessions (approximately 60 minutes each) with a midwife, scheduled every 1-2 weeks
* Complete the Pregnancy-Related Anxiety Questionnaire (PRAQ-R2) at the beginning and end of the intervention to measure anxiety levels
* Receive evidence-based education about the physiological process of childbirth, pain management methods (both pharmacological and non-pharmacological), and medical procedures
* Learn and practice stress-reduction techniques including breathing exercises, relaxation methods, and mindfulness
* Develop an individualized birth plan and practice communication skills for effective interaction with medical personnel
* Work on cognitive strategies to address negative thoughts and build positive affirmations about childbirth
