Adults with childhood maltreatment history can face a difficult experience in transitioning to parenthood. Women with a history of emotional neglect in childhood tend to experience problematic attachment. The study's aim was to evaluate the relationship between childhood trauma and maternal-fetal attachment in pregnant women in a population-based study in Southern Brazil. This is a longitudinal study with pregnant women who were interviewed in two moments: before 24-weeks of pregnancy and 60 days after the first interview. We used the Childhood Trauma Questionnaire and the Maternal-Fetal Attachment Scale. The mean of maternal-fetal attachment in the general sample was 99.8 (± 10.8). The mean of emotional neglect was 8.9 (± 4.7); physical neglect 6.7 (± 2.8); sexual abuse 5.9 (± 3.0); physical abuse 6.8 (± 3.1) and emotional abuse 8.0 (± 4.1). After adjusted analysis, we found that pregnant women who suffered emotional neglect had 0.4 points less on the average on the maternal-fetal attachment, β = -0.4, CI 95% [-0.6, -0.2], and pregnant women who suffered emotional abuse had 0.2 points less on the average on the maternal-fetal attachment, β = -0.2, CI 95% [-0.5, -0.0]. Only emotional neglect and emotional abuse were associated with maternal-fetal attachment. This study showed that a history of childhood trauma can have a negative impact during the prenatal period, and can impair maternal-fetal attachment. The data found can assist health professionals in identifying factors that can protect and contribute to pregnant women who were victims of childhood trauma to face the transition to parenthood in the best possible way.

The aims of this study were to identify predictors of health practices of pregnant women in the literature reviewed, to use meta-analysis to ascertain the mean effect size (ES) across studies between each predictor and health practices, and to examine four moderators on each predictor–health practices relationship. Using preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses guidelines for the literature assessed, 32 published studies or doctoral dissertations completed between 1992 and 2015 met the inclusion criteria. Twelve predictors were identified, and each predictor in relation to health practices was subjected to meta-analysis. One predictor (maternal–fetal attachment) of health practices had a large ES, two predictors (depression and stress) had medium ESs, six predictors (income, education, parity, social support, employment, and age) had small ESs, and three predictors (gestational age, marital status, and race) had trivial ESs. Findings are interpreted relative to health practices in pregnant women.

Fetal Attachment

Maternal Fetal Attachment and fetal growth are strongly influenced by the emotional state or anxiety of the mother, this can be seen from the psychological condition of the mother before giving birth.  The psychological condition of the mother will have an impact on the health and development of the fetus. In Indonesia, there are about 28.7% of pregnant women who experience anxiety in the third trimester. The research objective was to determine the relationship between anxiety and maternal fetal attachment. Cross sectional study. With a population of pregnant women in the third trimester aged 20-35 years as many as 42 respondents. The sampling technique used non probability sampling with a total sampling of 42 pregnant women in the third trimester. The anxiety measurement tool uses the Zung self-rating anxiety scale (ZSAS) questionnaire and the MFA uses the Prenatal attachment inventory (PAI) questionnaire. Pearson analysis (product moment). The p value is 0.023 with a correlation coefficient of -0.350. The conclusion is that there is a relationship between anxiety and maternal fetal attachment at Gamping II Public Health Center with weak relationship closeness, it means that the lower the anxiety score received, the higher the maternal fetal attachment score. Suggestions for pregnant women in the third trimester to be more active in seeking information, both electronic print media, health workers and others about maternal-fetal attachment since pregnancy.
