Description of intervention(s) / exposure
The Resilience and Optimism Workshop (ROW).

This intervention is a 2-day consecutive workshop, each day starts at 8.30am - 4pm with 1 hour lunch break and two 15 minute coffee breaks in the morning and afternoon.

The workshop will be facilitated by a clinical psychologist who is the author of the ROW intervention (Josephine Ratna). Josephine is an experienced clinical psychologist who speaks English and Bahasa Indonesia. The intervention will include group disscussion, activities, role play and brain storming activities for pregnant women who are at least in their second trimester of pregnancy. Topics cover empowerment, resilience, and optimistic thinking will be developed in consultation with a clinical psychologst, Obstetrician/ Gynaecologist, a nurse and a psychiatrist, taking into account suggestions from previous studies and relevant programs, as well as specific cultural issues and myths.

The workshop will use examples and hypothetical situations that are common but specifically challenging for pregnant women e.g. what if they deliver a child who has a developmental delay; what if their husband or close family member can not attend the birth; what to do if the child is struggling when do you intervene to get help rather than watch and wait a child that is struggling, what actions can be taken to gather extra support while the family is trying to meet the needs of a difficult child. ROW will be specifically designed for the purpose of preventing postnatal depressive symptoms, emphasising efforts to increase individual resilience in the mother and the family, and optimism based activities based on previous research studies and activity outcomes.

Participants will receive a booklet which describes key themes (pregnancy, changes, depression, protective and risk factors, attributions - optimism vs pessimism, resilience, support systems and cultural aspects of childbirth and caring and caring for a new baby). There will be sections for critical reflection, individual and group learning activities (including possible implementations in a personal context) to complete and inspirational quotations.

Purpose of the study
Prevention
Allocation to intervention
Randomised controlled trial
Procedure for enrolling a subject and allocating the treatment (allocation concealment procedures)
Pregnant women attending antenatal care at 8 primary health care clinics in Surabaya (East Java) - will be recruited. After completing the pre-tests, clinics will be randomly allocated to one of two groups. The random allocation will be performed by our statistician who will be blind to the identity (intervention or control) of the two groups.
Methods used to generate the sequence in which subjects will be randomised (sequence generation)
After completing the pre-tests, clinics (rather than participants) will be randomly allocated to either an intervention or a wait-list control group with the proviso that there are four clinics from each city in each group. The online randomizer at http://www.randomizer.org/form.htm will be used to accomplish this.
