This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This trial is testing whether a program called Care4mommies—which teaches pregnant women compassion skills for themselves—can help improve their emotional well-being and strengthen bonding with their babies after birth. The program includes five weekly 2-hour sessions during pregnancy focused on building self-compassion and coping skills. Researchers will compare this new program to the standard birth preparation classes that hospitals already offer.
Pregnancy and early motherhood bring major emotional challenges that can affect a woman's mental health and her connection with her baby. This study exists because there aren't many programs designed specifically to build self-compassion during pregnancy—a skill that may help protect mothers' emotional health during this critical time.

If you join the Care4mommies group, you will attend five weekly 2-hour sessions in person at a healthcare facility during your pregnancy. These sessions will teach you compassion-focused skills and techniques to support your emotional well-being. You will also complete questionnaires before the program, after it ends, and after your baby is born to help researchers understand how the program affected your well-being and your bond with your baby. The entire study spans from late pregnancy through the first few months after birth.
