What this trial studies

This interventional study compares a mindfulness-based stress reduction program to standard care in nulliparous pregnant women between 12 and 28 weeks of gestation.

Outcomes include prenatal anxiety, concerns about fetal health, and overall psychological well-being. The study is conducted at Amasya University and affiliated hospital sites.
