AB  - Objective: In the study, we aim to examine the relationship between loneliness, social support, and readiness to hygienic care for newborns in pregnant women.  Materials and Methods: The descriptive, cross-sectional and correlational study was conducted on primigravida pregnant women (n=254). The data were collected by using Questionnaire Form, the UCLA Loneliness Scale (UCLA), the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS), and the Scale for Readiness of Pregnant Women to Hygienic Care of the Newborn (SRPWHCN) were evaluated with Pearson correlation analysis.      Results: Median NO2 levels for all countries decreased between 1-The mean age of the pregnant women was 25.75±4.64. A significant relationship was found between various descriptive characteristics of the pregnant women and the scales. It was determined that there was a significant negative relationship between MSPSS and some sub-dimensions and UCLA of the pregnant women (p<0.05). There was a negative relationship between the mean scores of the UCLA and SRPWHCN of the pregnant women and a positive relationship between the mean scores of the MSPSS and SRPWHCN.  Conclusions: It was observed that the risk of loneliness increased as social support decreased in pregnant women and their readiness for hygienic care of their newborns decreased as their level of loneliness increased.
