Özet
Background: Routine medical interventions in the birth process cause in a disruption of the natural process of birth and the mother to experience negative and unhappy birth. Objective: To evaluate labor interventions performed during normal birth and women’s birth experiences and expectations.Methodology: This descriptive, cross-sectional study was conducted from January to June 2017 with 331 women. A questionnaire was used for data collection, and a chi-square test was used for analysis. Results: The most commonly practiced intervention was restricted eating and drinking (100%), followed by induction/provocation (85.8%), enema (75.8%), amniotomy (45.9%), continuous electronic fetal monitoring (43.5%), fundal pressure (52.9%), and episiotomy (88.8%). Most women (83%) had to remain immobile during labor, and all gave birth in the supine position. Additionally, 63.4% received partially supportive care from health personnel, half were given no information on the process being performed, and approximately threequarters (73.4%) were not included in the decision-making process during labor. Half of the women stated that health personnel did not respect them or their privacy and that their attitudes and behavior were bad, and 89.7% gave birth in a single-person labor room.Conclusions: These results indicate that the normal birthing process is being medicalized. More than half of the women were not satisfied with the attitudes and behaviors of the health care providers from whom they received care and reported negative birth experiences.
