Abstract The Lived Experience of Uncertainty in Pregnancy Jan J. Boge 1994 The concept of uncertainty during pregnancy is the phenomena under study. A qualitative research method using Parse’s research methodology helps to explain the lived experience of uncertainty in pregnancy. Using concepts from uncertainty in illness, along with coping as a guide to the study, the concept of uncertainty during pregnancy is analyzed. The results are expressed as a theoretical construct based on the concepts of Parse’s nursing theory of Human Becoming. Implications for nursing and education, along with recommendations for further research are discussed.
