Popis: Abstract Aim This study aims to determine the relationship between the burden of care and self‐care abilities of pregnant women with 0–6‐year‐old children and the factors affecting them. Design A cross‐sectional questionnaire survey. Methods This study consisted of 348 pregnant women over the age of 18, with children between the ages of 0–6. Results The study determined that the self‐care ability mean scores of mothers who have two or more children between the ages of 0–6 were low and the caregiver burden mean scores were high. The researcher found a negative correlation between the self‐care ability scale scores and caregiver burden scale scores of pregnant women included in the study. These results are statistically significant and valuable in terms of revealing information about the caregiver burden and self‐care ability of pregnant women with 0–6‐year‐old children.
