Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

In the study, random assignment and randomization concealment will be applied to control selection bias. Pregnant women were assigned to groups by an independent statistician using the block randomization method. For this purpose, 6-digit combinations consisting of the letters "A", "B" and "C" were first created in the randomization of 78 women.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

PMR Group

* After meeting the pregnant woman in the polyclinic, a personal information form and the Pregnancy Stress Assessment Scale will be filled out at the beginning of the research.
* PMR will be explained to the pregnant woman and the first application will be done together. Any questions the pregnant woman may have will be answered.
* An education booklet will be given about PMR.
* The application will be performed 3 times a week starting at the 32nd week of pregnancy until labor begins, each application lasting 20 minutes.
* The first application will be done face to face, and subsequent applications will be done by the pregnant woman herself, accompanied by a PMRvideo.
* Continuous communication will be maintained with the pregnant woman via mobile phone.
* The Pregnancy Stress Assessment Scale will be filled out at the 38th week.
* The Birth Affect Scale and Birth Self-Efficacy Scale will be filled out on the first day after birth.
