Study Summary
The purpose of this small randomized controlled trial (RCT) is to compare the impact of a brief (16 hour) 3rd trimester mindfulness-based childbirth education program, "Mind in Labor (MIL): Working with Pain in Childbirth," with a standard care/"treatment as usual" (TAU) active control condition of standard hospital- and community-based childbirth education. The MIL group is expected to demonstrate a reduction in fear of labor (less pain catastrophizing and greater childbirth self-efficacy), less perceived pain in labor, less use of pain medication in labor, greater birth satisfaction, and better prenatal and postpartum psychological adjustment compared to the TAU group.
Primary Outcome
Change in levels of self-reported childbirth self-efficacy and pain catastrophizing
Interventions
- BEHAVIORAL Treatment as usual (TAU)
- BEHAVIORAL Mind in Labor (MIL): Working with Pain in Childbirth
