Exclusion Criteria:
Pregnant women in the control group will be subjected to the routine hospital protocol without any other intervention. Pregnant women in this group are verbally informed about bathing during outpatient clinic follow-ups. After completing the post-test questions, the newborn bath application video will be transmitted to the women in this group on their phones and the disadvantageous situation of this group will be tried to be reduced.
The women assigned to this group will be shown the newborn bath application video prepared by the researchers in groups of 2-4 people in the form of a projection presentation.
Behavioral: Intervention group 1
In groups of 2, the researcher will first explain the stages of newborn bathing application by the researcher in the form of a projection presentation, and then the pregnant women will be provided to perform the newborn bathing application on the newborn bathing model and tools simultaneously with the researcher.

Knowledge Level of Mothers on Newborn Bathing
The Newborn Bathing Knowledge Test was developed by the researchers based on the literature to determine the knowledge levels of mothers about newborn bathing. In the knowledge test, there are a total of 20 questions under 10 main topics including "bath time, bathing materials, ambient temperature, water temperature, umbilical cord care, soap and shampoo use, maintaining newborn body temperature, bathing procedure sequence, safety during bathing, drying after bathing and dressing". The questions were prepared in multiple-choice and true/false design, and each question had only one correct answer. The women\'s answers to the questions were evaluated after the completion of the test and each correctly answered question was evaluated as five points and the total score ranged from 0-100. The higher the score obtained from the knowledge test, the higher the women\'s level of knowledge about newborn bathing.
Time frame: average 3 months
Anxiety level of women
Anxiety level of women will be assessed by using Spielberger\'s State Anxiety Inventory. The scale was developed to measure the state anxiety levels of normal and abnormal individuals and adapted into Turkish by Öner and Le Compte. It is a self-assessment type scale consisting of short statements. The State Anxiety Inventory was developed to measure a person\'s anxiety at a specific moment and consists of 20 items. In the evaluation of the scale, it is accepted that those who score below 36 have no anxiety, those who score between 37 and 42 have mild anxiety and those who score 42 and above have high anxiety.
Time frame: average 3 months
Womens bonding levels
Womens bonding level will be assessed using the Postpartum Bonding Questionnaire (PBQ). The PBQ was first developed to assess mother-infant attachment. It was revised to identify problems in the mother-infant relationship. The scale was adapted into Turkish by Dişsiz et al. in 2024. The six-point Likert-type scale has 21 items to measure the mothers attachment to the infant within a year. As the score obtained from the scale increases, the mothers bonding to the baby decreases.
Time frame: average 3 months
