Objective: The research was carried out to determine healthy lifestyle behaviors and the influencing factors in pregnant women.
Materials and Methods: The universe of the research, which is descriptive and cross-sectional, was made up of pregnant women who applied to obstetrics clinics between 30.02.2018-15.06.2018. A total of 207 healthy pregnant women who met the inclusion criteria of the study in the sample were considered. Personal information form and Healthy Lifestyle Behaviors Scale were used as data collection tools.
Results: The average age of pregnant women is 27.68±4.18. The highest score that pregnant women got from the health behavior scale; spiritual development (26.84±4.88), interpersonal relationships (25.18±4.82) and health responsibility (24.49±4.40), and the lowest score belongs to physical activity (14.99±4.71). Women who are housewives, exercise regularly, rest during the day, do not change their sex life, have a planned pregnancy, have a normal birth weight of their baby, have a final vaginal delivery, and have higher health behavior scores.
Conclusions: Healthy lifestyle behaviors are inevitable for maternal and fetal well-being during pregnancy. It is important to create guides and awareness about healthy living behaviors for pregnant women. Support is provided to evaluate and change the negative health behaviors detected with the pregnant.

Öz

Amaç: Araştırma, gebelerde sağlıklı yaşam biçimi davranışlarını ve etkileyen faktörleri belirlemek amacıyla yapıldı.
Materyal ve Metot: Tanımlayıcı ve kesitsel türde olan araştırmanın evrenini bir kamu hastanesinde, doğum polikliniklerine 30.02.2018-15.06.2018 tarihleri arasında başvuru yapan gebeler oluşturdu. Çalışmanın örneklemde çalışmaya dahil edilme kriterlerini sağlayan toplam 207 sağlıklı gebe ele alındı. Veri toplama aracı olarak kişisel bilgi formu ve Sağlıklı Yaşam Biçimi Davranışları Ölçeği kullanıldı.
Bulgular: Gebelerin yaş ortalaması 27,68±4,18 (min:18, max:41)’dir. Gebelerin sağlık davranışları ölçeğinden almış oldukları en yüksek puan; manevi gelişim (26,84±4,88), kişilerarası ilişkiler (25,18±4,82) ve sağlık sorumluluğu (24,49±4,40) olup, en düşük puan ise fiziksel aktiviteye (14,99±4,71) aittir. Ev hanımı olan, düzenli egzersiz yapan, gündüzleri dinlenen, cinsel yaşamı değişmeyen, gebeliği planlı olan, bebeğinin doğum ağırlığı normal sınırlarında olan, son doğumunu vajinal yolla yapan kadınların sağlık davranışları puan ortalamaları daha yüksektir.
Sonuç: Gebelikte maternal ve fetal iyilik durumu için sağlıklı yaşam davranışları kaçınılmazdır. Multidisipliner bir ekiple gebeler için sağlıklı yaşam davranışlarına yönelik rehberlerin oluşturulması, farkındalıkların sağlanması önemlidir. Tespit edilen olumsuz sağlık davranışlarının gebe ile birlikte değerlendirilmesi ve değiştirilmesi yönünde destek sağlanması önerilmektedir.
