Abstract To investigate the fear of childbirth and its influencing factors analysis of pregnant women during the third trimester of pregnancy. Methods: A convenience sampling method was used to select 490 pregnant women during the third trimester of pregnancy from September to December 2023 as the study subjects. The childbirth fear scale (CAQ), childbirth self-efficacy inventory (CBSEI-C32), and anxiety self assessment scale (SAS) were used to collect the situations of the fear of childbirth, the prenatal anxiety and the self-efficacy in childbirth of the women. The factors affecting the fear of childbirth of the women were analyzed. Results：The incidence of the childbirth fear of the women was 59.8%. Logistic regression analysis showed that the prenatal anxiety was an independent risk factor of the childbirth fear of the pregnant women during the third trimester of pregnancy (OR=1.861, 95%CI 1.224-2.829). The history of pregnancy and childbirth (OR=0.590, 95%CI 0.393-0.886), and the high score of childbirth in self-efficacy (OR=0.177, 95%CI 0.118-0.266) of the women were the independent protective factors of their childbirth fear during the third trimester of pregnancy. Conclusion: The rate of the childbirth fear of the pregnant women during the third trimester of pregnancy is higher, and the childbirth fear of the women is influenced by the factors, such as the pregnancy and childbirth history, the anxiety, and the self-efficacy in childbirth, which should be paid attention in the clinical work, and the targeted intervention strategies should be developed.
