Brief Summary: Detecting fatigue experienced during pregnancy and intervening with an effective intervention has an important place in both improving the comfort during pregnancy and the healthy progress of pregnancy birth and postpartum period Determining the severity of fatigue experienced during pregnancy and identifying risk factors can help midwives design adequate and effective interventions for pregnant women in this sensitive period Çoban Yanıkkerem 2010 Türkmen 2014

The planned research was aimed to examine the effect of the pregnancy pillow used in the last trimester on fatigue and comfort
Detailed Description: Pregnancy is a natural and physiological event However the physiological psychological and metabolic changes that occur in this process may bring about some disorders Şahin Kiliçarslan 2010 Yanikkerem Altiparmak Karadenİz 2006 Disorders that occur during this period may differ depending on the week of pregnancy In the first trimester breast tenderness nausea-vomiting frequent urination in the second trimester Constipation headache increased appetite back pain and fatigue may occur Aydın Özkan Kaya Şenol Aslan 2020 In the third trimester due to changing anatomical and physiological changes edema frequent urination muscle cramps lower back pain insomnia shortness of breath weakness and fatigue may be observed Aydın Özkan et al 2020 Fatigue is a condition that is frequently seen especially in the third trimester of pregnancy and has an impact on the ability to continue activities of daily living Although the real cause is unknown fatigue and weakness can occur in any period of pregnancy It has also been stated in the literature that it may cause labor pain or postpartum depression Mortazavi Borzoee 2019 Therefore preventing fatigue during pregnancy is very important

Comfort is the state of being stress-free and comfortable physiologically spiritually and socially Kolcaba Dimarco 2005 A woman who completes her pregnancy comfortably has a high sense of self-confidence and quality of life In the opposite case it is known that stress anxiety and depression are experienced more and pregnancy and birth complications increase Nakamura et al 2015 Therefore it is important to determine the comfort levels of pregnant women and know the affecting factors Aydın Özkan et al 2020

Midwives have important duties to improve maternal and indirectly public health by reducing pregnancy problems experienced by women Midwives should not only provide physical care to pregnant women during prenatal care Midwives must also fulfill their roles and responsibilities of observation support assistance continuing education and consultancy Midwives should carefully listen to the symptoms and problems stated by the pregnant woman and determine the extent of the problems One of the most important problems experienced during pregnancy is fatigue Cheng et al 2015 Çoban Yanıkkerem 2010 Perry et al 2014 However unfortunately there is no systematic intervention to prevent or treat fatigue experienced during pregnancy
