Midwifery August 1, 2023 Christina Prinds, Niels Christian Hvidt, Katja Schrøder et al. 1 citation

Among a nationwide Danish cohort of 16,380 pregnant women surveyed during the early COVID-19 pandemic, existential meaning-making practices such as prayer and meditation were largely unchanged: 88% reported that the pandemic had not influenced their responses. Overall, 44% considered themselves believers, 29% confirmed a specific form of prayer, and 18% confirmed a specific form of meditation. The pandemic did not alter these considerations or practices in this population.
