Purposes: This was an initial study of the thoughts and feelings of obstetrical nursing students who participated in a pregnancy simulation experiment. The simulation involved participants wearing a pregnancy suit to experience the attendant daily life issues and better understand the mental and physical feelings of women in late pregnancy in order to empathize with pregnant women under their care. Methods: This study employed a qualitative research method and a purposively selected of forty fourthyear junior college students who were asked to record their perceptions and feelings throughout the experiment process. Researchers used content analysis to analyze data. Results: Five pregnancy experience themes emerged. These included transfiguration and perceived changes to the body, mimicing maternal emotions, perceiving the needs of pregnant women, learning care, reflecting on the difficulties of unmarried pregnant girls. Conclusions: The study found simulating the experience of late pregnancy helpful to understanding the physical and psychological changes that occur during pregnancy. Reflection and developing empathy for pregnant women can enhance the professional and personal growth of obstetrical nursing students.
