Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
The study will collect data on gravida and parity. Participants will be further categorized into four groups based on their delivery history:
Women undergoing a cesarean section for their first delivery. Women experiencing a normal vaginal delivery for their first delivery. Women with a history of vaginal delivery who have another vaginal delivery in this pregnancy.
Women with a history of vaginal delivery who deliver via cesarean section in this pregnancy.
Each of these four groups will have a corresponding case (antenatal class attendees) and control (non-attendees) subgroup.
Data on cesarean section indications, the name of the physician performing the cesarean, and the hospital's annual primary cesarean section rates will be requested from the hospital and compared across groups. For the case group, information regarding the specific antenatal education received, the gestational week at which the education was received, and patient characteristics such as age, infant birth weight, and educational level will also be collected.

Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
All women who gave birth between January 2024 and December 2024 and attended antenatal classes (pregnancy school) will be included in the study.
For the control group (women who did not attend antenatal classes), participants will be randomly selected, matching the case group (antenatal class attendees) in terms of age, education level, and parity.
Exclusion Criteria:
Women with a history of previous cesarean sections who are undergoing a repeat cesarean in this pregnancy will be excluded.
Women with high-risk pregnancies, such as preeclampsia, preterm labor, preterm premature rupture of membranes, multiple pregnancies, previous cesarean section, or placental abruption, will not be included in the study.
