Information that (de)motivate women’s decision making on Planned Home Birth
ABSTRACT Objective: To understand how information about Planned Home Birth motivates or discourages women’s decisions on this location of birth. Method: Descriptive exploratory study, qualitative approach. Data collection carried out from February to April 2019, through semi-structured interviews with 14 women and documentary sources. The data were analyzed using Bardin’s content analysis process, with the help of ATLAS.ti 8.0. Results: The motivations for choosing Planned Home Birth are: respect for the autonomy and natural process of childbirth and delivery, support from a partner and trust in professionals. Aspects that discourage this choice are fear of complications, the need for a hospital medical structure, opinions that value risk. Conclusion: Women’s choices are based not only on information, but also on how that information is processed.
