Abstract

Premature birth remains a leading cause of neonatal morbidity and mortality worldwide. Emerging evidence suggests that maternal sleep patterns during pregnancy may influence gestational outcomes, yet this area remains underexplored. This study investigates the relationship between variations in sleep patterns among pregnant women and the risk of premature birth. A prospective cohort study was conducted involving 215 pregnant women in their second trimester. Sleep data were collected using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS), daily sleep diaries, and wrist actigraphy over a two-week period. Participants were followed until delivery, and gestational age at birth was recorded. Logistic regression analysis was used to assess the association between sleep parameters and premature birth, controlling for maternal age, BMI, parity, stress levels, and socioeconomic status. The findings revealed that women with poor sleep quality (PSQI > 5), sleep durations under 6 hours per night, and irregular sleep-wake cycles were significantly more likely to experience preterm birth (p < 0.01). Irregular sleep timing was associated with a 2.3-fold increase in preterm delivery risk. Sleep-disordered breathing symptoms and frequent nighttime awakenings were also more prevalent in the preterm birth group. This study supports the growing evidence that poor and irregular maternal sleep is a significant risk factor for premature birth. These results underscore the need to integrate sleep screening and interventions into routine prenatal care as a preventive strategy to improve maternal and neonatal outcomes.

Abstract

This research investigates the influence of antenatal education on mothers’ readiness to face childbirth, focusing on its impact on physical, emotional, and psychological preparedness. The study explores how structured antenatal education programs can improve maternal knowledge, reduce anxiety, increase self-confidence, and contribute to a more positive birth experience. Data were collected through surveys and interviews with expectant mothers who participated in antenatal education classes, and the findings were analyzed to assess the effects of education on maternal preparedness for labor and delivery. The results indicate that antenatal education significantly enhances mothers' readiness by providing them with essential information about the childbirth process, coping strategies, and self-care techniques. Furthermore, participants in the education program reported lower levels of anxiety and greater satisfaction with their birth experience. The study also highlights the challenges related to access to antenatal education, particularly in rural and underserved areas, and emphasizes the need for culturally sensitive and accessible programs. These findings suggest that improving access to antenatal education can empower mothers, reduce maternal and neonatal complications, and improve overall maternal health outcomes. The research provides valuable insights for healthcare providers and policymakers, offering recommendations for enhancing antenatal education programs to better support expectant mothers.
