To investigate primiparous women's knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding the physical home food environment (PHFE) and to assess if the first pregnancy provides a teachable opportunity to enhance the PHFE of first-time pregnant couples.
Longitudinal in-depth qualitative study involving questionnaires and individual interviews during and after pregnancy.
Fifteen primigravida women.
Knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors concerning PHFE; lifestyle and dietary habits; and interest in guidance regarding healthy PHFE during the first pregnancy and the transition to motherhood.
Thematic analysis for qualitative data and descriptive statistics.
Key findings include the significance of health, nutrition, and spousal support in the transition to motherhood. The first pregnancy was recognized as a critical period for establishing a healthy PHFE, while noting the physical and emotional challenges involved. A gap was found in guidance regarding PHFE for first-time pregnant women despite their interest in practical advice.
The first pregnancy presents a significant opportunity to improve PHFE. 'Nestrition' (nutritional nesting), a new health-promotion strategy, incorporates nutrition education to enhance this process. These data support future research encompassing partners and diverse at-risk populations prior to the development of effective nutrition education for PHFE in the first pregnancy.
调查初产妇对家庭物理食品环境（PHFE）的知识、态度和实践，评估首次怀孕是否为提高首次怀孕夫妇 PHFE 的可教机会。
涉及怀孕期间和之后的问卷调查和个人访谈的纵向深入定性研究。
15 名初产妇。
PHFE 的知识、态度和行为；生活方式和饮食习惯；以及在首次怀孕和过渡到母亲身份期间对健康 PHFE 指导的兴趣。
定性数据的主题分析和描述性统计。
主要发现包括健康、营养和配偶支持在过渡到母亲身份中的重要性。首次怀孕被认为是建立健康 PHFE 的关键时期，同时注意到其中涉及的身体和情感挑战。尽管初产妇对实用建议感兴趣，但发现针对首次怀孕妇女的 PHFE 指导存在差距。
首次怀孕提供了改善 PHFE 的重要机会。“营养巢（营养巢）”是一种新的健康促进策略，将营养教育纳入其中，以增强这一过程。这些数据支持未来的研究，包括伴侣和不同风险人群的研究，以便在首次怀孕时制定有效的 PHFE 营养教育之前。
