背景
怀孕期间的身体形象与产妇和新生儿的健康有关。本研究旨在探讨怀孕前期体重与孕妇体像改变的关系。
方法
通过一个自我管理，自由回答问卷，76个怀孕至少30周的孕妇描述了他们对目前的外观和体型的感觉，并比较这些孕前的感觉。受访者还完成了身体形状问卷调查，以衡量目前对身体形状的关注。
结果
怀孕前超重的妇女在怀孕30周以上时更有可能在身体形象上有积极的变化。怀孕前体重正常的女性更有可能出现负面变化。尽管超重妇女的积极变化，他们的身体形状的关注比正常体重的妇女更消极。
结论
我们的研究强调了社会价值观，孕前体重和怀孕期间身体形象变化之间的关系。一些女性可能会受益于在以患者为中心的背景下讨论他们的经历。
BACKGROUND
Body image in pregnancy has been linked to maternal and neonatal health. This study examined the relationship between prepregnancy body weight and body image change in primigravid women.
METHODS
Through a self-administered, free-response questionnaire, 76 primigravidas of at least 30 weeks' gestation described their feelings about current appearance and body shape and compared these to prepregnancy feelings. Respondents also completed the Body Shape Questionnaire to measure current concern with body shape.
RESULTS
Women who were overweight before pregnancy were more likely to have had a positive change in body image when they were at more than 30 weeks' gestation. Women who were normal weight before pregnancy were more likely to have had a negative change. Despite overweight women's positive changes, their body shape concerns were more negative than those of normal weight women.
CONCLUSIONS
Our study highlights the relationship between social values, prepregnancy body weight, and body image change during pregnancy. Some women may benefit from discussing their experiences in a patient-centered context.
