مستخلص: Women who fear childbirth have longer labor than those who do not, a new study has found. Norwegian researchers assessed fear of childbirth with a 33-item questionnaire filled out at 32 weeks of gestation. After excluding those with a multiple pregnancy, breech presentation, preterm delivery or elective Caesareans, they were left with 2,206 women for the study, published online last week in the journal BJOG.
