Present study was carried out to study the status of maternal consciousness among Nepalese women living in Kathmandu. Of the total 360 mothers of different ethnic groups included in this study, only 55.5% mothers were found to have a positive feeling regarding their pregnancy (pregnancy is a wonderful event for women) (strongly positive 16.6%; positive 39.2%). Over one-forth of the mothers (27.7%) had negative feelings (strongly negative 8.8%; negative = 19.0%) and 14.4% had neither positive nor negative feeling. Among the different ethnic groups, Launa (Tamang/Sherpa) ethnic had highest rate (nearly two-third) of positive feeling towards pregnancy. However, the positive feeling towards born baby was very high (77.9%). The level of feeling of love to their baby was different in different ethnic groups. Compared with other population groups, Dalits had higher level of positive feelings about giving a child birth, childcare and self-sacrifice for the shake of children.
本研究旨在调查居住在加德满都的尼泊尔女性的母亲意识状况。在本研究纳入的360名不同种族的母亲中，只有55.5%的母亲对自己的怀孕有积极感受（怀孕对女性来说是一件美妙的事情）（强烈积极占16.6%；积极占39.2%）。超过四分之一的母亲（27.7%）有消极感受（强烈消极占8.8%；消极占19.0%），14.4%的母亲既没有积极感受也没有消极感受。在不同种族中，劳纳（塔芒/夏尔巴）族对怀孕的积极感受率最高（近三分之二）。然而，对新生儿的积极感受非常高（77.9%）。不同种族对孩子的爱的感受程度不同。与其他人群相比，达利特人对生育、育儿以及为孩子做出自我牺牲有着更高程度的积极感受。
