To examine the effects of infertility treatment on women's ability to adapt to pregnancy and motherhood.
Fecund (n = 261) and subfecund (n = 103) primiparous women receiving obstetrical care in southeastern Michigan participated in this descriptive, correlational, prospective study. The subjects completed Lederman's Pre-Natal Self-Evaluation questionnaire during the third trimester of pregnancy and Lederman's Postpartum Self-Evaluation questionnaire during the first postpartum appointment.
Mean scores showed that the two groups of women were not significantly different with either adaptation to pregnancy or motherhood.
CONCLUSIONS & IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING: Although subfecund women may experience stress in order to achieve a pregnancy, there do not appear to be any latent effects of this stress on their ability to adapt to pregnancy or motherhood.
探讨不孕症治疗对女性适应妊娠和为人母的能力的影响。
在密歇根州东南部接受产科护理的有生育能力（n = 261）和生育能力低下（n = 103）的初产妇参与了这项描述性、相关性、前瞻性研究。研究对象在妊娠晚期完成了莱德曼产前自我评估问卷，并在产后首次就诊时完成了莱德曼产后自我评估问卷。
平均得分表明，两组女性在适应妊娠或为人母方面没有显著差异。
尽管生育能力低下的女性为了怀孕可能会经历压力，但这种压力似乎对她们适应妊娠或为人母的能力没有任何潜在影响。
