- In this chapter, the concept of anchored companion, which was developed based on my research, and presented in my dissertation and in one article, will be presented. The concept was grounded in studies about women’s experiences of pregnancy, birth, pain during the birth and the encounter between the midwife and the woman, as well as midwives’ experiences of encountering women and their pain. The method used to develop the concept was a general structure based on phenomenological and hermeneutic studies. The context for the studies are a Birth Centre and traditional hospital care for women with normal pregnancy in Sweden. Even if the concept of anchored companion was developed in a special context, it can be, and has been, used in a wider Nordic and international context, which will be discussed in this chapter.
