| contents | <p>Background: Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM) poses significant physical and psychological challenges for high-risk pregnant<br>women, often leading to anxiety, emotional distress, and reduced quality of life. Social support plays a critical role in alleviating<br>these impacts and enhancing overall well-being.<br>Objective: This study aimed to explore the role of social support and its implications for the psychological well-being of pregnant<br>women at risk of GDM in Bireuen District, Aceh Province.<br>Methods: A qualitative phenomenological approach was employed to capture the lived experiences of pregnant women identified<br>as high risk for GDM based on criteria such as obesity, excessive gestational weight gain, family history of diabetes, or prior obstetric<br>complications. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, focus group discussions (FGDs), and document reviews from<br>healthcare facilities. Colaizzi’s method of thematic analysis was applied, supported by NVivo software for coding and data<br>management. Validity was ensured through triangulation techniques, while ethical standards—including informed consent and<br>confidentiality—were strictly observed.<br>Results: The findings revealed that pregnant women experienced considerable emotional strain associated with GDM risk,<br>compounded by physical discomfort and socioeconomic challenges. Social support from husbands, families, peers, and healthcare<br>providers emerged as a vital protective factor, providing emotional reassurance, practical assistance, and improved adherence to<br>medical care. Conversely, inadequate support increased vulnerability to anxiety and depression.<br>Conclusion: Social support is fundamental to safeguarding the psychological well-being of pregnant women at risk of GDM.<br>Strengthening family involvement, health education, and access to psychosocial interventions is essential to improve maternal and neonatal outcomes.</p> |
