[Obstetrical observations of single-parent pregnancies (based on data from the Clinique Universitaire de Gynecologie, d'Obstétrique et de la Reproduction in the city of Besançon, France)].
This investigation includes 369 women-patients from the region served by the clinic during the period 1988-1992. Some particularities are observed in the course of the monoparental pregnancies, related with the social characteristics of the pregnant unmarried women. They are younger than the women, who get pregnant in biparental families. More than the half have no profession. They have no or only primary education in 39.5% of the cases. These women appear late and more rarely for medical examinations surveillance. Almost 30% of these pregnancies are lately declared or not registered at all. The premature deliveries occur three times more frequently than in the other female population. The delivery flows spontanously more seldom (69% against 76%), more often a section caesarean is applied (8.5% against 7.5%). Data concerning the pathology during the term of pregnancy and postdelivery complications, are presented. In this group of women the number of those who are breast-feeding their babies is smaller (55% against 68%). It is recommended to carry out a similar study in Bulgaria in order to plan better founded measures for education and social support of women.
