“…MWH users perceived MWHs as a resting place, where women could take a break from their household and domestic tasks, which was perceived as beneficial before giving birth [ 13 , 23 , 38 – 41 , 45 , 48 , 49 ]. All subgroups felt they had easier access to health services when using the MWH, including better monitoring by health staff and easier transfer to higher-level facilities when complications occurred [ 7 , 12 , 19 , 24 , 35 , 37 , 39 , 41 , 42 , 50 – 53 ]. Other incentives for MWH users were health education [ 34 , 49 , 54 ], free lodging [ 13 , 39 ], the possibility of avoiding negative experience with home births [ 37 , 43 ], the benefits of sharing experiences and doing tasks together with other women [ 23 , 38 , 40 , 41 , 46 , 50 , 55 ] and the possibility of learning a new skill, such as sewing or gardening [ 13 ].…”
