This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This study is testing whether a multimedia childbirth education program can help reduce anxiety and fear in pregnant women and their spouses as they prepare for delivery. More than 90% of pregnant women experience anxiety about childbirth, and this trial examines whether educational videos and information presented at 37 weeks of pregnancy can boost confidence and create a more positive birth experience.
Research shows that prenatal education can significantly reduce fear, anxiety, and depression while increasing a woman's confidence during labor. This trial aims to confirm whether this multimedia approach is effective and to understand how it benefits both mothers and their partners.

You and your partner would attend a health education class at your 37-week prenatal visit, where you'd watch multimedia content about childbirth and labor. You'll complete brief questionnaires at your 37-week visit, at your first hospital admission, and one hour after you arrive to deliver to measure your anxiety levels and confidence. The study takes place over just a few weeks and involves attending one educational session plus completing a few simple surveys.
