1). The COVID-19 pandemic restricted our work for several months which affected access to the focused antenatal care and delivery care services we provided in hard-to-reach communities and IDP camps, and resulted to increase in so many unwanted pregnancies...
2)...including significant increase in the proportion of stillbirths; our antenatal care sessions usually picks up and manages high-risked pregnancies and complications among pregnant mothers.
Ongoing workshop on safe birthing practice and the importance of child birth spacing among women living in IDP camps and rural communities across Nigeria ✌️
