Abstract
Aim: To explore women's experiences on the psychoeducation programme based on
Human Caring Theory in decreasing fear of childbirth.
Design and Methods: This Husserlian phenomenological qualitative study was
conducted with 11 women.
Results: Four themes were identified; “selfmotivators for participate in psychoe-
ducation programme”, “psychoeducation: a bridge to deal with fears”, “ability to
manage the fear of childbirth,” and “change in birth type preference”, with 10
subthemes.
Practice implications: Clarifying the experiences of women on educational inter-
ventions gives an idea about the applicability, sustainability and developability of
these interventions
