Abstract
This study aims to explore the biopsychosocial challenges faced by women during childbirth and their coping strategies. The research design employed a qualitative approach using in-depth interviews and checklists with 30 women who had recently given birth. The data collected were analyzed using thematic analysis. The results showed that women faced a range of challenges during childbirth, including physical pain, fear, anxiety, and uncertainty about the outcome. These challenges were influenced by various factors such as age, parity, socio-economic status, and cultural beliefs. Coping strategies employed by women included seeking social support, relaxation techniques, and engaging in positive self-talk. The study provides valuable insights into the challenges women face during childbirth and the coping
strategies they employ. The findings can inform the development of interventions to support women during childbirth and promote their well-being.
