Each year an estimated 289,000 maternal deaths occur worldwide; of which 50 % around labor, delivery and immediate postpartum period. Postnatal care (PNC) is crucial but relatively neglected component in the continuum care, hence a missing link toward safe motherhood. Despite significant improvement child health motherhood interventions, mortality ratio, perinatal neonatal still remain challenge achieving Millennium Development Goals 4 5 Pakistan. This was descriptive cross sectional study...
