This study evaluates effects of non pharmacologic methods comprising skin to skin contact (SSC) and music during SSC on maternal state anxiety in cesarean section unit in Akbarabadi Educational-Health center. In a randomized controlled trial, 90 Iranian women 20-40 years old with term and singleton pregnancy who will be scheduled for cesarean section repeat, under spinal anesthesia, will be recruited in three groups (30 women in each group). Two hours after operation, pain relief drugs will be prescribed as a routine care for all women. Post operative pain will be evaluated by visual analog scale (VAS). If VAS ≤ 3, Maternal state anxiety will be measured by using the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) Scale (Spielberger). Interventions will be done for mother-infant dyads in intervention groups as 30 min SSC or music during SSC and control group will be received routine care only. Six hours later, if VAS ≤ 3, maternal state anxiety will be measured by using the Spielberger Scale again.
