Women reported fear of fetal loss and uncertainty following diagnosis. Many sought information independently due to limited professional guidance. Bed rest, constipation, and hygiene difficulties were commonly reported. Emotional strain, disrupted routines, and strained partner relationships were also noted. Despite these difficulties, women developed coping strategies and found support from their families, healthcare providers, and personal faith.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Providing timely and clear information about the diagnosis and treatment may help reduce psychological distress in pregnant women.
