摘要：Introduction and objective. Teaching pregnant women behaviours connected with care for one’s health condition anda healthy lifestyle is crucial in perinatal care. Desired health behaviours, including nutritional habits, play an important rolein the health of the mother, as well as the proper development of the foetus. The aim of the presented study was to analysethe subjective assessment of nutritional habits in the light of general health behaviours of pregnant women.Materials and method. Research was conducted on a sample of 81 women in Szczecin. The methodological basis forinvestigation was Juczyński’s Health Behaviour Inventory (HBI). General index of intensity of health behaviours (GIIHB) wascalculated by adding the results for all the 24 statements included in the HBI. Four categories of health behaviours wereanalysed separately: proper nutritional habits, preventive behaviours, positive thinking and health practices. The studypresents the analysis of proper nutritional habits (PNH) in the light of GIIHB of women attending antenatal classes.Results. Results indicate that the PNH of pregnant women displays a positive correlation with their GIIHB (r=0.654; p<0.05). Itis also shown that the PNH (r=0.26, p<0.05) and GIIHB (r=0.35; p<0.05) are related to the age of pregnant women participatingin antenatal classes.Conclusions. Research indicates the need for education of pregnant women, initiatives and campaigns aimed at propagatingand promoting proper health behaviours, including nutritional behaviours. There is a positive relationship between thePNH of women participating in antenatal classes and their GIIHB. Such measures should be addressed to women regardlessof whether they participate in antenatal classes or not, and regardless of their age or level of education
