The mental state of women changes during pregnancy, which has been proven by a number of scientific studies. In today's world, experts are increasingly linking health problems and the psychological state of a person. Indeed, the emotional background directly affects the hormonal background, and in the presence of stress hormones in the blood, no organ or organ system can function properly. There are two polar views: some believe that during pregnancy, women experience an emotional uplift, a sense of happiness, increased activity, while others, on the contrary, talk about an emotional decline, depressive symptoms, fatigue, anxiety. Both of these views are correct. If this is so, then the question arises about what factors affect the emotional state of a woman during this period. The article highlights the interrelationship of psychological processes that accompany physiological changes in the body of a pregnant woman. After all, pregnancy is a state of functional tension of all systems and organs of a woman. Undoubtedly, increased tension finds its mark in the psychological state of the pregnant woman. From the point of view of psychology, certain sequential psychological changes take place in a woman during pregnancy - the decision to maintain the pregnancy, the period of pregnancy before the movement of the fetus, the period after the beginning of movement, the prenatal period and childbirth.
