This study was conducted to determine the depressive symptoms of pregnant women and investigate their body image and some related factors. Material and Methods: A cross-sectional design was used in the study, and it was conducted with the participation of 520 pregnant women in Türkiye. The data collection tools included the Personal Information Form, Beck's Depression Inventory, and Body Cathexis Scale. Results: In the study, 24.6% of the pregnant women have depressive symptoms. Pregnant women's low educational level, poor income, chronic diseases, "low" BMI, and whether they smoke or not were found to be related factors to depressive symptoms (p<0.05). Besides, pregnant women with depressive symptoms have lower body image satisfaction (p<0.05). The study found that body image affects depressive symptoms in the ratio of 0.971 times (Beta: -0.029; p<0.05).
