Fetal Wellbeing Questionnaire

The FWQ is a self-report questionnaire assessing pregnant women's subjective perception of fetal wellbeing, maternal physical and emotional health, and prenatal bonding. Developed by DiPietro and colleagues studying fetal development and maternal-fetal attachment, the FWQ captures non-clinical dimensions of pregnancy experience that predict maternal and infant outcomes. The questionnaire is used in research and clinical screening to identify pregnant women at risk for anxiety, depression, or poor bonding, enabling early intervention.
