“…For example, while some cultures promote special foods and rest for pregnant women, in other societies pregnant women are expected to continue working routinely. In addition, nutritional taboos may deprive pregnant women of essential nutrients particularly iron, protein, vitamin B 12 and folic acid 19 . Mgata and Maluka in their study in Dar es Salaam reported that perceptions of antenatal care, past experience with pregnancy, fear of pregnancy disclosure, socio-cultural beliefs, age, occupation, marital status, parity, behaviour and knowledge level were key individual and social factors for late ANC attendance.…”

Background: Good care during pregnancy is important for the health of mothers and development of the unborn baby. The study determined the prevalence and factors associated with late ANC booking among pregnant women at health facilities in Kigamboni Municipality in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. Methods: This was an analytical cross-sectional study among pregnant women attending ANC services during second and third trimester in the selected health facilities. The study recruited 204 through convenient sampling. Multi-stage cluster sampling was used to select health facilities. A Standardised questionnaire was used to collect information through face-to-face interviews. Data was analysed using SPSS version 25.0. Proportions were used to estimate the magnitude of late ANC booking while bivariate and multivariate analyses were performed to determine factors associated with the magnitude of late ANC booking. Results: Late ANC bookings were high 174 (85.3%) among pregnant women who attended clinic week 13 and later compared to those who attended earlier than 13 weeks 30 (14.7%). Factors associated with likelihood for late ANC booking during the initial visit included tertiary education [AOR= 10.174, 95%CI: 1.002-103.301] and primigravida [AOR=0.101, 95%CI: 0.170-0.605]. Conclusion: Majority of the pregnant women started ANC later than the recommended time. Health education provision at all community levels on the advantages and disadvantages of early and late ANC booking respectively should be strengthened. Keywords: Pregnant women; ANC; booking; parity; education.

“…Women are often dissatisfied with intrapartum care because their needs and expectations are not met (Kifle et al, 2017). Moreover, in a recent review, Bohren et al (2019a) reported that women's negative perceptions of birth persisted over a long period of time and increased the likelihood of adverse maternal outcomes, such as postpartum depression and fear of subsequent birth (Garthus-Niegel et al, 2013;Poote & McKenzie-McHarg, 2015). Vedam et al (2019) highlighted the frequent mistreatment of women during childbirth in hospital settings in the United States, which was often related to unexpected medical interventions.…”

Objective: To identify and meta-synthesize results of qualitative studies on the needs of women cared for by midwives during childbirth in hospitals.Data Sources: MEDLINE, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL), Embase, and the Cochrane Library.Study Selection: We restricted the bibliographic search to articles published in English to July 31, 2020. The initial search yielded 6,407 articles, and after 2,504 duplicates were removed, we screened the titles and abstracts of 3,903 articles. We conducted a full-text review of 89 articles and included 13 qualitative studies about the needs of women who were hospitalized during childbirth and had midwives as their primary maternity care providers.Data Extraction: We extracted data (e.g., authors, publication date, type of study, sample size, results, and quotes) from the full text of each article into a standardized table. Two authors reviewed all articles using the Critical Appraisal Skills Programme tool to assess study quality and to independently score each study.Data Synthesis: We analyzed the findings of each study and synthesized them to develop themes. We found 14 major themes that reflected the needs of women during hospitalization for childbirth:
