摘要

台灣男性與外籍婦女通婚有愈來愈普遍的趨勢，而外籍新娘中以東南亞國籍女性最多；外籍新娘不僅需要面對適應婚姻生活的問題，更要面臨文化、價值及族群等差異問題，再加上婚後懷孕所導致的身、心變化造成孕期心理上的不安與害怕感，更增加外籍新娘在台適應問題。本研究採問卷調查法，調查東南亞籍跨國婚姻婦女於懷孕期間的生理、心理壓力情形。以立意取樣，於新竹縣市、及雲林縣共4家醫院，共收集142位東南亞籍跨國婚姻之孕婦，研究資料以SPSS 11.0 for Window統計軟體進行資料分析。研究結果：(1)在國籍方面以越南為居多；(2)孕期生理不適之前三名依序：我的乳房漲漲的、我喜歡吃重口味的東西、我比較喜歡某些食物；(3)孕期心理壓力前三名依序：我擔心胎兒是否有缺陷、我擔心生產時胎兒的安全、我擔心胎兒的健康。本研究之結果可應用於未來護理人員產前衛教指導之參考，期盼能提昇外籍新娘孕期的生活品質。
