Sammanfattning
Around half of the births in Nepal take place with no trained birth attendant present. Maternity waiting homes, where mothers with high-risk pregnancies can stay during the final period before their due date, can make it practically possible for more of them to give birth in hospital. The measure is particularly beneficial for young, primiparous women.
