[Some psychological characteristics of pregnant teenagers in the first trimester of pregnancy].

The goal of our study was the investigation of emotional state in teenage and adult pregnancy (fears, anxiety), social relation (definitions of terms) in first trimester of pregnancy. The results of the study demonstrated that 1) the number of women who develop any kind of fears were from the group of pregnant teenagers and developed fears were different by intensity and frequency in comparison with adult pregnant women, 2) based on anxiety database, teenage pregnancy can be considered as a risk factor, 3) pregnant teenagers evaluate "baby" with lower scores and the difference between the evaluation of "real me" and "ideal mother" is higher in this group, 4) teenage and adult pregnant women have different desire of planning pregnancy, and they have some concerns about lactation and delivery. It is clear that pregnant teenagers represent the risk group by emotional state in relationship to the adaptation to the new social role of "mother" in I trimester. Counseling by psychologist is preferable at the early stage of pregnancy to avoid expected complications.
