Maternal self-efficacy (MSE) is a critical factor in women's adaptation to motherhood and the well-being of both mother and infant. Family-Centered Maternity Care (FCMC) is an approach that emphasizes family involvement in the pregnancy and childbirth process.

Implications for midwifery practice and future research directions are discussed
