Childbirth experience can affect women's long-term health and well-being. However, there is limited knowledge on whether migrant status affects woman's during childbirth. We aimed to answer the following research questions: (1) Is a difference in childbirth between native-born women Iceland; (2) Are more likely mistreatment compared Iceland? An online survey was developed including Experience Questionnaire 2 assess overall experience, descriptive analysis linear regression were conducted determine differences Iceland. The by care providers indicators used evaluate childbirth, frequencies logistic conducted. Both models adjusted for sociodemographic obstetric factors. A total of 1365 participated. Migrant reported statistically significantly lower scores birth (F [12, 1352] = 23.97, p < 0.001). There no statistical groups regarding One four all at least one form mistreatment. This study suggests that are areas maternity be improved upon, particularly providing addressing all. Our results suggest further this area as well evaluation systems, training cultural competency effective communication.
