- Abstract
Objective: The anxiety of individuals in the coronavirus epidemic affects their eating behaviours. Nutrition during pregnancy is an important factor for pregnancy and fetal health. This study was aimed to determinate the effect of anxiety and phobia caused by the coronavirus 19 disease (COVID-19) on the nutritional status and eating habits of pregnant women. Method: In this cross-sectional study, a total of 87 pregnant women who applied to a private medical center obstetrics and gynecology clinic in Istanbul Sultangazi between April and May 2021 participated to this study. The research data were obtained by using the questionnaire form applied by the researcher, 24-hour food consumption record, coronavirus 19 phobia scale (C19P-S), and the changes in eating behaviour during the COVID-19 pandemic using face-to-face interview technique. Results: It was determined that the median total amount of energy intakes of women was 1565 kcal/day, and the median values of energy ratios of carbohydrate, protein, and fat were 45%, 15%, and 38%, respectively. It has been shown that dietary intakes of vitamin K and sodium was high, while the intake of micronutrients such as B1, B6, B9, and D and iron were insufficient. The median total score of the C19P-S scale was calculated as 57. There was no significant difference between the history of COVID-19 death or diagnose of women and the C19P-S scale scores (p>0.05). It has been found that there was a change in the amount of food that individuals take daily during the pandemic, and this change was mostly due to pregnancy (p<0.05). Conclusion: It was determined that the pandemic caused a moderate level of phobia in pregnant women. It was detected that the nutritional status and eating habits of pregnant women during the pandemic changed due to pregnancy, not because of the pandemic, but during the pandemic, the pregnant women did not reach dietary goals according to the recommendations for pregnancy.
