The women's experience of pregnancy and postpartum during COVID-19 pandemic : master's thesisŠestak, TeaIn this master's thesis, the author investigates experience of the pregnancy and the postpartum period in women during COVID-19 pandemic. In the theoretical part, master's thesis presents the key ... theories and processes of pregnancy and introduces the coronavirus 2019 disease. In empirical work with the help of qualitative phenomenological methodology, the author explores the lived connection between the phenomenon of experiencing pregnancy and the postpartum period with the COVID-19 pandemic. Six adult women who were pregnant and experienced postpartum during COVID-19 were included in the research. The answers were obtained through in-depth interviews. The results show surprisingly positive outcomes of pregnancy and postpartum and bring evidence on how women managed to maintain mental stability and regulate negative symptoms that appeared. Research shed light to the needs women had going through their pregnancy journey. According to the results, effective strategies for coping with COVID-19 significantly reduced risks and consequences that pandemic could have had on mental well-being of women. Optimism served as an inhibitor that helps overcome stressful circumstances. Strong and stable social support played key protective role in maintaining mental stability and regulating negative symptoms in maternal wellbeing. Being separated from their partners or any other close support system may evoke a wide array of negative symptoms such as fear and loneliness. Receiving sufficient emotional and instrumental support comes fort as preventive. The value of the research is in its in-depth analysis of specific type of support and coping mechanism women needed during stressful period of COVID-19. Their experience is valuable and should be supported by additional studies and research. The thesis suggests the need for further research which would enable more validity and possibility for generalization.Type of material - master's thesis ; adult, seriousPublication and manufacture - Ljubljana : [T.
