Result: The significant results from analyzing the interviews can be grouped into 34 themes, 8 categories. The essential themes for the experiences of the wives were ‘shocked by the unbelievable reality’, ‘can’t give up the connection to the blood’, ‘Lack of social education on pregnancy, and childbirth’, ‘self-pity’, ‘feelings of both families’, ‘Being afraid of the unexpected result’, ‘physical and mental agony’, ‘Positively coping with the reality.
