Abstract
INTRODUCTION
The environment and living conditions of parents during the "first 1000 days" period influence the short- and long-term health trajectories of children. Professionals following pregnancies play an important role in advising future parents to adopt health-promoting behaviors. It appeared necessary to describe the prevention messages transmitted by professionals early in pregnancy.
OBJECTIVES
To identify the prevention messages systematically delivered during the first trimester of pregnancy and determine the degree of priority that professionals (midwives, obstetricians, general practitioners) of Bourgogne-Franche-Comté give to them.
RESULTS
Prevention messages on infectious risk were addressed by 96.5% of respondents, and those on risk behaviors and addictions by 93.7%. Dietary balance and sports activities (78.5%), as well as risks in the daily life (47.1%) were less delivered. The messages that professionals declared to be delivered systematically to pregnant women during the first trimester were generally those that they considered to be priorities. There were some differences depending on the professional. Regarding information media, the majority of respondents did not use any. They agreed on the importance of a paper-based information medium and wished to be able to rely on a digital medium (62.6%).
CONCLUSION
The co-construction of support that meets the needs of both women and professionals and that is validated by health authorities would contribute to better consideration and promotion of health-promoting behaviors by parents, by promoting empowerment of women and couples from the beginning of pregnancy.
