Women hospitalized with high risk pregnancy are exposed to many stressors such as separation from their families, unsuitable and noisy environment, hospital routine, lack of privacy and lack of knowledge about their diagnosis and their fetuses. Stress has negative effect on maternal, fetal and neonatal outcomes such as abortion, preterm birth and low birth weight babies. Design: Quasi experimental (One group time series research design) was adopted for this study. Sample: A purposive sample of 45 high risk pregnant women through a period of 3 months was recruited for the purpose of the current study. Setting: High risk in-patient (Department 21) at Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital which affiliated by Cairo university Hospitals. Tools: A- Maternal Interviewing Questionnaire which includes socio-demographic data and obstetric history, B- Perceived Stress Scale-10 Items for Hospitalized Patient (PSS-10 HP) used to measure stress level before and after intervention, C- Hospital Stressors Assessment Sheet used to identify hospital stressors and ways of coping. Results: The current study revealed statistical significant difference in stress level before and after intervention due to emotional support (X2 41.627, P .000*).The study also revealed that, there is no statistical significant difference between stress level and neonatal birth weight, neonatal complications, time and mode of delivery (X2 18.280, P .107*).

Health care providers should provide an emotional support to reduce maternal stress and subsequently enhance pregnancy outcomes
