Aiming to understand the social representations of natural childbirth and caesarean section for women who experienced them, it was developed a descriptive, qualitative research. Interviews were conducted from July to October 2010, with twenty women who experienced both types of birth. The number of participants was determined by theoretical saturation during data collection and content analysis. The results showed, during the experience of motherhood: the search for information, the experience of childbirth alone versus support at birth; and that the woman has no option of choice on type of birth. Natural childbirth includes important issues such as: the ambivalence of feelings, positive perception and hospitalization. Cesarean section is associated with ambivalence of feelings, understood as a solution of a problem and the preference for cesarean section. The natural childbirth is a challenge for women, but the positive feelings outweigh the difficulties, while the cesarean section is associated to the physical benefits of its execution.
为了解经历过自然分娩和剖宫产的女性对它们的社会认知，开展了一项描述性定性研究。2010年7月至10月，对20名经历过这两种分娩方式的女性进行了访谈。参与者数量在数据收集和内容分析过程中由理论饱和确定。结果显示，在为人母的经历中：对信息的寻求、独自分娩的体验与分娩时的支持；以及女性对分娩方式没有选择权。自然分娩包括一些重要问题，如：情感的矛盾、积极的认知和住院情况。剖宫产与情感矛盾相关，被理解为解决问题的一种方式以及对剖宫产的偏好。自然分娩对女性来说是一项挑战，但积极的感受超过了困难，而剖宫产则与其实施带来的身体益处相关。
