Description
Aim: This study aims to identify which methods of birth are preferred by women in the municipality of Peja and which are the main factors that influence the selection of the method of birth.
Methodology: In this cross-sectional study the sample taken for this research consisted of 51 women from the municipality of Peja, who agreed to be interviewed. The focus has been on women who previously had one or more births, i.e. multiparous women. The sample was not taken in specific places such as a hospital or gynecological department, but randomly and from my relatives. The research instrument was a questionnaire that had a total of 19 questions divided into three parts. The first part: the basic characteristics of the participants, the second part: the subjective perception and the course of the previous birth, and the third part: the preferences for the mode of delivery according to the perceived benefits of vaginal birth and cesarean section among the research participants.
Results: 51 women participated in the research, all from the municipality of Peja and all multiparous women. 75% of them were aged 26-25 years, most of them 57% had tertiary education and one third had experience of previous abortion. More than 38% had difficult births, some of them with serious problems, and 51% preferred cesarean delivery.
Conclusion: A large number of new mothers prefer cesarean delivery, especially those of younger ages and those with higher education. Less painful birth, shorter labor time, avoidance of stress, fear, worries, and complications of pregnancy have been identified as factors influencing the choice of cesarean delivery.
