Kuleshova, K. V. Emotional States of Pregnant Women

Abstract: The author of the article studied emotional states of pregnant women throughout the last ten years. This study is important because it both relates to psychosomatic medicine paying attention at chronic negative emotional states influencing physical health and to the task of ensuring high quality of life of pregnant women. As the study shows, a woman can actually enjoy her pregnancy, although positive emotions are less typical for them compared to women in a post-natal period. Pregnant women often experience such emotions as surprise, compassion, interest, empathy and anxiety; a bit more rarely they feel shame, shyness and fear. Pregnant women are more imposed to the influence of negative emotions compared to women in a post-natal period. They also show fewer social contacts and communications due to their emotional and physical states.


Keywords:

psychology, pregnancy, shame, guilt, offence, anger, quality of life, social contacts, anxiety, shyness.
