Research focused on Internet behavior by women attempting pregnancy and pregnant women is scarce. Some research has been done in other countries, however it cannot be assumed those results also apply to Dutch women.
A descriptive cross-sectional study was performed using an Internet-questionnaire among women attempting pregnancy and pregnant women.
The aim of this study was to identify the Internet behavior of women attempting pregnancy and pregnant women in the Netherlands.
In total, 365 women completed the questionnaire. Of these, 95.6% used the Internet as an information source before or during their pregnancy. Most searched topics were fetal development, lifestyle and pregnancy as well as birth complications. Over 90% of the women thought the information found was reliable and based pregnancy related decisions on this information. However, only 50.1% of the women discussed the information found with their caregiver. Of the respondents, 76.2% thought a reliable website is needed provided by the caregivers.
A vast majority of Dutch women attempting pregnancy and Dutch pregnant women use the Internet to search for information and to make decisions about their pregnancy, however they were not satisfied with the information available online. A reliable, informative, interactive and up-to-date website is deemed necessary.
针对备孕女性和孕妇的互联网行为的研究相对较少。尽管其他国家已经开展了一些研究，但不能假设这些研究结果同样适用于荷兰女性。
采用互联网问卷调查的方式，对备孕女性和孕妇进行了一项描述性的横断面研究。
本研究旨在确定荷兰备孕女性和孕妇的互联网行为。
共有 365 名女性完成了问卷。其中，95.6%的女性在备孕或怀孕期间曾使用互联网作为信息来源。她们最常搜索的主题是胎儿发育、生活方式和怀孕以及分娩并发症。超过 90%的女性认为她们找到的信息是可靠的，并基于这些信息做出了与怀孕相关的决定。然而，只有 50.1%的女性与她们的医护人员讨论了她们找到的信息。在受访者中，76.2%的人认为医护人员提供一个可靠的网站是必要的。
绝大多数荷兰备孕女性和荷兰孕妇会使用互联网搜索信息并为自己的怀孕做出决策，但她们对网上提供的信息并不满意。一个可靠、信息丰富、互动和及时更新的网站被认为是必要的。
