妇女的选择和控制影响生育经验。本研究采用定性、描述性的方法来探讨女性如何制定她们最初的生育计划，以及计划的改变如何影响整体的生育经历。对加拿大安大略省滑铁卢地区15名分娩妇女进行叙述性、半结构化访谈，并采用现象学方法对数据进行分析。研究结果表明，女性在计划生育时依赖于许多资源，而女性最初的生育计划的改变会影响她对分娩经历的回忆。结论是，女性对分娩经历的积极和消极回忆更多地与感觉和选择和控制的运用有关，而不是与分娩经历的具体细节有关。
Women's choice and control impact birthing experiences. This study used a qualitative, descriptive approach to explore how women develop their initial birth plan and how changes made to the plan affect overall birth experiences. Narrative, semistructured interviews were conducted with 15 women who had given birth in Waterloo Region, Ontario, Canada, and data were analyzed using a phenomenological approach. Findings showed that women relied on many resources when planning a birth and that changes made to a woman's initial birth plan affected her recollection of the birth experience. Conclusions are that women's positive and negative recollections of their birth experiences are related more to feelings and exertion of choice and control than to specific details of the birth experience.
