The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate the significance of pregnancy from a cultural
standpoint. Each culture takes its own particular view of the major stages of life: birth, childhood,
puberty, parenthood, work, old age, and death. It is important to be aware of the different
cross-cultural perspectives, especially in our multicultural society. In this research paper,
address the following: Choose your own or another culture to research and investigate, and
describe the associated cultural views of pregnancy. How are pregnant women viewed and
treated? What beliefs are held about the biological processes occurring with regard to her body?
What is the perception of the developing fetus? What preparations are made for the upcoming
labor, delivery, and birth? How is impending parenthood anticipated? Be sure to include all
references. Personal interviews may be used as supplement only.
