Improving maternal health:Women’s attitude to antenatal care utilization is crucial

Abstract

The World Health Organisation in her 2018 release recommends that all women must have access to high quality care before, during and after childbirth to optimize maternal health. Women’s attitude towards antenatal care is crucial to her ability to access the requisite care. Findings reveal that women who do not receive care during pregnancy have worse pregnancy outcomes and risk maternal death. We advocate for more sensitization to change the attitude of pregnant women towards antenatal and intrapartum care.
