Özet

Purpose: This study was conducted for the purpose of investigating the effect of a web-based pregnancy counseling and childbirth educational program on pregnant women's activities of daily living. Methods: This is a quasi- experimental study. The web site: 'http://web.deu.edu.tr/gebelik' was used in the education, counseling and data collection stages of the study. The study sample consisted of 32 pregnant women in their 12th-26th week of pregnancy. Individual counseling and a two week standard education were given to the pregnant women who participated in the study. In the data collection, forms developed by the researcher were used to determine the pregnant women's activities of daily living (ADL). The pregnant women were assessed before education (BE), as well as one (OM) and two months (TM) after education. Results: The pregnant women's ADL scores steadily increased (p <.001). This result shows that web-based childbirth education and counseling program has a positive effect on pregnant women's ADLs. Conclusions: Web-based childbirth education and counseling can be provided to pregnant women by nurses and midwives.
