SUMMARY:

The research object of the present study is the knowledge of pregnant women about the signs of the beginning of labor. This is a descriptive, observational study with a quantitative approach. The study was carried out in Basic Health Units of a municipality in the interior of the state, which is a reference in coverage and quality in basic care in a state in the northeast region of Brazil. The Data collection began after approval from the Research Ethics Committee. Study’s participants were pregnant women from the 28th gestational week onwards. It should be noted that the majority, 45.35% of pregnant women; were between 20 and 29 years old; with an average age of 26.6 years old; brown women (70.35%), whose family income is up to 1 minimum wage (49, 42%); live with a partner (54.87%) and reported having high school education (29.07%) at the time of collection. There was no association between scientific research, with p-value results above 0.05. The present study evaluated that pregnant women's knowledge about signs of the beginning of labor, concluding through statistical analyzes there was no association with most of the variables used. Despite the lack of association between the collection of guidelines and the recognition of signs of labor, the descriptive data from this study suggest that pregnant women record the signs of labor when they report going to the maternity ward when they feel two or more contractions within a period of 10 minutes; however, these same pregnant women were unable to inform whether they should observe 10 minutes as an appropriate time, nor the number of contractions to be felt during this time. Therefore, when talking about prenatal education about decisive topics that are directly related to positive results during this period, it is necessary to make use of not only different strategies and methodologies for teaching and health education and access to information, but also strategy for investigating this knowledge, and solidifying this information.
