The main objective of ‎these care are healthy delivery without jeopardizing mothers health.

Data collection tool was a ‎‏3‏‎ part questionnaire.‎ Results: Findings showed that ‎‏53.4%‏‎ of women receiving insufficient prenatal care. There was a ‎significant correlation of care and employment condition (p=‎‏0.026‏‎) level of spouse s education ‎‎(p=‎‏0.042‏‎) and income (p=‎‏0.005‏‎).
