Abstract

Objective: to investigate the social representations of pregnant women about prenatal nursing care. Method: based on the Theory of Social Representations, a qualitative study was conducted with 10 pregnant women assisted by nurses from the Family Health Strategy during prenatal consultations. Data were collected by means of a semi structured interview consisting of guiding questions and a form with socioeconomic questions and obstetric gynecological data, and analyzed by structural narrative analysis. Results: when elaborating on the representation about prenatal nursing, the pregnant women demonstrated ignorance about this type of consultation, but satisfaction and confidence in their performance since this was a space of care for themselves and the baby. Final considerations: this study investigated pregnant women’s social representations about nursing consultations related to care satisfaction and bond creation, favoring the continuity of care.
