With the onset of the COVID-19 epidemic, pregnancy and childbirth for women are taking place in unusual circumstances. We explored the lived experiences of pregnant women during the COVID-19 pandemic to better understand their experience of pregnancy so that better support could be provided.
We used a descriptive phenomenological approach to understand the lived experience of pregnant women in COVID-19 pandemic. We collected data using a purposive sampling method through in-depth interviews in cyberspace with a semi-structured questionnaire. We used Colaizzi's seven-step content analysis method to analyze the research data with the help of MAXQDA software version 2020.
We conducted this descriptive phenomenology study on 19 pregnant women in a period between the 10th to the 20th of May, 2020. The participating women were already pregnant when the first signs of the epidemic appeared in the country and at the time of the interview. We acquired four themes including disruption of the tranquility and regular routines of daily life, new challenges caused by the epidemic, resilience and strength in facing the crisis, and adaptation with new conditions.
The pregnant women were under intense stress during the COVID-19 outbreak. The general mobilization the health system is necessary for alleviating pregnant women's difficulties in situations like the COVID-19 epidemic. Virtual training classes and virtual counseling may enhance the peace and tranquility of pregnant women.
随着 COVID-19 疫情的爆发，女性的怀孕和分娩都在特殊的环境中进行。我们探讨了 COVID-19 大流行期间孕妇的生活体验，以更好地了解她们的妊娠经历，以便提供更好的支持。
我们采用描述性现象学方法来理解 COVID-19 大流行期间孕妇的生活体验。我们通过半结构式问卷在网络空间中采用目的性抽样方法收集数据。我们使用 Colaizzi 的七步内容分析法，在 MAXQDA 软件版本 2020 的帮助下分析研究数据。
我们于 2020 年 5 月 10 日至 20 日对 19 名孕妇进行了这项描述性现象学研究。参与研究的孕妇是在疫情在该国出现的第一迹象时已经怀孕，且在接受采访时也已怀孕。我们获得了四个主题，包括日常生活的宁静和常规被打乱、疫情带来的新挑战、面对危机的韧性和力量、适应新环境。
COVID-19 爆发期间，孕妇承受着巨大的压力。在 COVID-19 等疫情中，需要对卫生系统进行总动员，以减轻孕妇的困难。虚拟培训课程和虚拟咨询可以增强孕妇的平静感。
