Maternal death is a substantial burden in developing countries. In Bangladesh, recent studies have suggested that a large proportion of women giving birth in rural areas experience pregnancy and delivery related complications. This study, which is set in context where home-birth is the norm, provides the opportunity to provide descriptive information on the self-reported prevalence of maternal behaviors and morbidities during pregnancy, delivery and postpartum periods and to quantify the effects of provision of maternal care interventions through trained community health workers on a few selected maternal behaviors and morbidities.
