Abstract
Antenatal education has the aim to provide expectant parents with strategies for dealing with pregnancy, childbirth and parenthood. Studies showed that it was useful to the pregnant women in different aspects such as the preparation for the parenthood. However, its relationship with maternal-fetal outcomes was not reviewed much. The pregnant women can obtain useful information related to childbearing and childbirth from midwives once they have started their antenatal visits. Antenatal education can be delivered in the form of the advice given during antenatal visits, the information booklets or pamphlets obtained, and the structured midwife-led antenatal education programme with 3D animated video.
