Abstract:
When a pregnant woman is separated from her customary support system and placed in a high-stress environment, she experiences concurrent developmental and situational crises. A unique example of this is the incarcerated pregnant woman. A prenatal program developed to decrease the stress of being pregnant in prison is presented. The needs and concerns of the women are described. Nursing strategies are presented, with emphasis on practical interventions. Problems in implementation and ways to alleviate those problems are discussed.
