FAMILY SUPPORT
FAMILY SUPPORT
MEMBER
Initially it is important to
identify a family member
who can be readily
available throughout the
entire pregnancy.
It can be the to-be father,
in-laws, parents or even a
close friend.
This person must be
committed and be with her
from the very start of
pregnancy i.e. as soon as
the pregnancy is
established.
PRENATAL VISITS
PRENATAL VISITS
Expectant mothers must
be accompanied for
prenatal visits to
gynecologist's or midwife's
office, prenatal classes,
tests during pregnancy and
finally, for labour and
delivery.
PRENATAL VISITS
Make sure to be with her
during big events. For
instance, when the first
ultrasound comes or at the
time when the unborn
baby's first heart beat is
detected. The magic of
these prenatal events
becomes even more
memorable when shared
with loved ones.
PRENATAL VISITS
Being physically present is
not enough. Family
members must try to know
about pregnancy and of
possible ways to support an
expectant mother and also
appear participative in
nature.

of coping strategies (breathing,
relaxation and positions) in labour as
use is associated with benefits in
terms of pain and womens
emotional experiences of labour
(Spiby et al. 2003; Spiby et al. 1999).
