Material and Methods: The sampling for the research featuring a cross-sectional design comprised 284 pregnant women who applied to the pregnant training class of a state hospital. Data were collected by Personal Information Form, Acceptance of Maternity Role and Acceptance of Pregnancy sub -dimensions of the Prenatal Self-evaluation Scale and Scale for Pregnancy Complaints and Their Impact on the Life Quality (SPCILQ). Descriptive statistics and Pearson Relationship Analysis were used in the analysis of the data. Results: The age average of pregnant women is 28.27 & PLUSMN;5.14, it was found that 33.8% of the pregnant women are high-school graduates, 79.8% are housewife, 86.6% have a moderate economic status, 84.2% have elementary family. The average pregnancy week of the pregnant is 31.98 & PLUSMN;8.16, the average pregnancy number is 1.60 & PLUSMN;0.48. It was determined that 78.2% of the pregnant women have a desired/planned pregnancy, 45.4% get information from physician, 41.5% get information from midwife in the prenatal controls regarding the complaints experienced in the pregnancy. The point average which the pregnant women took from the sub-dimension of the Acceptance of Maternity Role is 37.72 & PLUSMN;4.07; the point average they took from the sub-dimension of the Acceptance of Pregnancy is 40.14 & PLUSMN;4.34; the point average they took from Scale on Complaints in Pregnancy and Its Impact on the Life Quality is 72.29 & PLUSMN;28.10. A statistically positive-way weak relationship was detected between the point average of Scale for Pregnancy Complaints and Their Impact on the Life Quality (SPCILQ) and point averages of maternity role (r=0.209, p=0.000). No statistical significance was detected between point average of SPCILQ and point averages of the acceptance of the pregnancy (p>0.05). Conclusion: As the impact of the pregnancy-based complaints on the life quality increases, a decrease is seen in the adaptation to the maternity role.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessmaternity roleadaptation to pregnancypregnancypregnancy complaintslife qualityArticle7260861710.30621/jbachs.1133579WOS:001019553000008Q4
