Brief summary: THE EFFECT OF NEURO LINGUISTIC PROGRAMMING ON LABOUR PAIN, FEAR, DURATION AND MATERNAL SATISFACTION

Detailed description: In this study, it is aimed to determine the effect of neuro linguistic programming on labour pain, fear, duration and maternal satisfaction.

Sample size:

* The sample size of the study is 124 (for primiparous=62, multiparous=62).
* Frist, primiparous women who applied to the hospital for vaginal delivery will be divided into 2 arms as 31 experimental group and 31 control group.
* Second, multiparous women who applied to the hospital for vaginal delivery will be divided into 2 arms as 31 experimental group and 31 control group.

Data Collection Tools;

* Introductory Information Form,
* Visual Analog Scale for Pain,
* Wijma Birth Expectation/Experience Scale B version,
* Birth Satisfaction Scale

Application time:

* The neurolinguistic programming will be applied to the experimental group. NLP application will be done when the cervical opening is 4 cm, when the cervical opening is 5-6 cm, when the cervical opening is 7-8 cm.NLP application will be done three times in total. Each session will last 20 minutes
* No neurolinguistic programming will be applied to the control group.

Measurement time:

* Introductory Information Form will be completed by the woman when the cervical dilatation is 3-4 cm.
* VAS for pain will be measured before and immediately after the application when cervical dilatation is 4 cm; before and immediately after the application when cervical dilatation is 5-6 cm; before and immediately after the application when cervical dilatation is 7-8 cm; when cervical dilatation is 9-10 cm.
* Wijma Birth Expectation/Experience Scale B version and Birth Satisfaction Scale will be completed by the woman in the postnatal ward at approximately the second hour postpartum after the birth has taken place.
* The labour duration will be started for the mother who comes to the delivery room when the cervical opening is 4 cm and the total labour duration will be measured in minutes after the birth occurs.
* The control group will not be administered NLP only, but the measurements will be completed as in the experimental group.

Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

* pregnant women who give birth vaginally,
* whose birth takes place in the delivery room unit,
* who are 19 years of age or older and 35 years of age or younger,
* who are born at 37 and above gestational weeks,
* who give singleton birth,
* who do not have chronic diseases and any complications in this pregnancy and postpartum period

Exclusion Criteria:

* mothers who wish to leave the study voluntarily at any stage after being included in the study,
* who develop any health problems in themselves or their babies during the birth and postnatal period will be excluded from the scope.

Primary outcomes:
measure: Visual Analogue Scale for Pain
timeFrame: immediately before neuro linguistic programming application when the cervical opening was 4 cm, 5-6 cm, 7-8 cm
measure: Visual Analogue Scale for Pain
timeFrame: immediately after neurolinguistic programming application when the cervical opening was 4 cm, 5-6 cm, 7-8 cm
measure: Wijma Birth Anticipation/Experience Scale B version;
timeFrame: between approximately the second to sixth hours postpartum
measure: Birth Satisfaction Scale;
timeFrame: between approximately the second to sixth hours postpartum
