Farmers pregnant women may be exposed to various harmful effects to your health and your fetus. The aim of this study was to translate, adapt and develop the preliminary normative study of KAP Questionnaire (Knowledges, Attitudes and Practices. - LORENZ et al, 2012). To this end, the protocol was translated into Portuguese, performed semantic analysis adapting the terms for better understanding the Portuguese language, and then retranslated into English. The instrument was applied to 50 pregnant women who lived in the regions of Irati and Guaraniaçu, Parana. From the results it was verified that this instrument was coherent and satisfactory for the survey of Knowledge, Attitudes and Practices of Brazilian pregnant women in relation to pesticides. There were significant associations between the knowledge and the pregnancy stages, and the longer the pregnancy, the greater the knowledge about the risks of exposure to pesticides, as well as taking attitudes and safe practices during pregnancy, at home and at work. Corroborating with other literature data, it was possible to inadequacies relating to programs and measures to prevent exposure to pesticides, indicating possibilities for action by the public health spheres, above all, for the design of policies and strategies permeated by educational activities and practices risk communication. It is important to emphasize the need for others studies that enable the validation of this protocol, with a larger number of participants.
