Notes
Irene went to kagulu to teach about post natal care,recommendations,benefits,barriers,and activities done. Irene started with a review of the previous lessons then later discussed the postnatal care. Several women gave reasons as to why they don’t go back for antenatal services, shadia said her husband has four wives and if she tries to inform him about going back to the health center after delivery he saps its a wastage of time and that she could be seeking for his attention, shaluwa said it’s always hard to go for postnatal services because the health workers don’t pay attention to them claiming that they only need them when there is a problem because they have other patients to take care of. Sofa said it’s ignorance because they give them return dates but they never pay attention to them they only aim at getting a baby after the baby is born they never return because they don’t know the benefits or importance. After the meeting Irene went to yunusu’s home to check on him but unfortunately Irene found when he is having a cold and cough so she drove them to the nearby health center for treatment.
