This research aimed to determine the effectiveness of stress management training on anxiety, sleep quality, and severity of postpartum depression symptoms in primiparous mothers. The research method was semi-experimental with a pre-test-post-test design and a control group with a two-month follow-up. The statistical population was the first pregnancy women of Tunkabon city in 2023. From this population, based on the entry and exit criteria, 30 women were selected by purposeful sampling, and 15 women were randomly assigned to the experimental group and the control group. Beck Anxiety Questionnaire (BAI, 1988), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Questionnaire (PSQI, 1989), and Edinburgh Postpartum Depression Questionnaire (EPDS) (2003) were used to collect data. Data analysis was done with the statistical method of analysis of variance with repeated measurements. The results showed that the difference in the mean scores between the pre-test and post-test stages for the anxiety variables and postpartum depression symptoms in the experimental group showed a significant decrease, and for the sleep quality variable, a significant increase (0.001), and the differences from the post-test stage to the stage. Follow-up was not significant, meaning that the effects of stress management training were stable over time. From the above findings, it can be concluded that stress management training increases sleep quality and reduces anxiety and the severity of postpartum depression symptoms.
