Abstract:
This paper examines age patterns of first marriage and motherhood and covariates of early marriage, delayed consummation of marriage and early motherhood in Nepal using data from the 2000 Nepal Adolescent and Young Adult Survey (NAYA). Both unmarried and married male and female youths (age 14–22) were included in the survey. The analysis is based on 2800 urban youths and 5075 rural youths with complete information on the variables examined. Proportional hazard models are used to estimate covariates of early marriage and early motherhood, and logistic regression models are used to estimate covariates of delayed consummation of marriage. The results show that early marriage and early motherhood are quite common among Nepalese women, especially in rural areas. Early marriage is much less common among men. Delayed consummation of marriage is common among very young brides, especially in rural areas. The main covariates associated with early marriage and early motherhood are respondent’s education, region of residence and ethnicity. The main covariates of delayed consummation of marriage are age at first marriage, region of residence and ethnicity. The study highlights the need to focus on less educated female youths in the Terai region in order to reduce the reproductive and child health risks associated with early marriage and early childbearing.

Abstract:
The safe motherhood programme is one of the priority programme of Nepal. Its primary goal is to reduce maternal and neonatal mortality. Safe pregnancy, safe delivery and safe birth of new born are the major components of safe motherhood. This can be accomplished through increased access to effective antenatal, delivery and postnatal care and a massive health awareness activity in local communities.Academic Voices, Vol. 3, No. 1, 2013, Pages 19-23 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3126/av.v3i1.9981

Abstract:
Improving maternal health was one of the eight millennium development goals (MDGs) in 2000 and later included in SDG as a major agenda in 2015 which was adopted by the international community. In Nepal, the first elected democratic government developed Health Policy in 1991 and revised in 2014 which has identified safe motherhood as a priority program and institutionalized safe motherhood as a primary health care. In order to effectively address maternal and neonatal morbidity and mortality, the Family Health Division, Department of Health Services (DoHS) developed National Safe Motherhood Long Term Plan 2002- 2017 (revised in 2006) which aimed to establish basic and comprehensive emergency obstetric care services in all districts. To complement this plan, the National Policy on SBA (2006) was developed with the aim of increasing the percentage of births assisted by a skilled birth attendant (as internationally defined) to 60 percent by 2015. Table 1 explains some historical shifts in maternal health policies and programs in Nepal.

Abstract:
This paper highlights on safe motherhood practices in a rural municipality in Nepal. Primary data are collected through the survey questionnaire from 196 respondents who are married women of reproductive age group. The findings show that knowledge and practices on safe motherhood practices are moderately satisfied. The majority of the delivery cases are being handled in the health posts at a prolonged labor stage with the support of their husbands. The cord-cutting practice is also becoming scientific with the use of using sterilized scissors. Mothers are happily practicing the breastfeeding culture at least for two to three years after delivery. However, the rural mothers are facing problems such as vomiting, bleeding, anemia swelling of the leg, back aching, and head aching during pregnant periods, possibly due to the traditional treatment practices and the local food habits. Majorities of the respondents have good knowledge of contraceptives devices, but they prefer to report on health posts only for a postnatal checkup. All in all, safe motherhood practices in the rural community are found moderately adequate and needed to be improved by offering antenatal, natal, and postnatal services at no cost.

Abstract:
Professional mothers’ responsibility regarding motherhood and a professional life management is highly confronted with gender roles whether to quit or continue the job. Understanding about the intersection between motherhood and professional life helps to navigate and negotiate the dual roles. This phenomenological study is based on qualitative method, which explores how female English language teachers are able to maintain their social and professional identity in Nepal. In this research I analyze the experiences of three secondary level female English language teachers with a focus on dual roles, multiple coping strategies and gender issues on its center. The study reveals that, balancing motherhood and professionalism as female teachers have a lot of challenges which results the incompatibility on both roles. The sensitive nature of job and inflexible and monotonous duties at home made female teachers impossible to undertake their duties perfectly at schools and at home vice –versa. Such role becomes tougher to them due to multilingual environment in the classrooms. This study can be the trajectory bridge to the professional women to get some ideas to balance motherhood and their professional lives.

The obtained data was entered and analyzed using Microsoft Excel. Results: Total of 42,798 patients had utilized the safe motherhood services during the study periods, majority of them being antenatal visits followed by vaginal and caesarean delivery. Some of the vaginal deliveries 490 (5.3%) were complicated which included vacuum delivery, intrauterine fetal death, twins and breech delivery. Among the total delivery 2316(24.8%) were caesarean sections, of which more than halves were due to emergency indications. Conclusions: The safe motherhood program in Western Regional Hospital has positive impact on the maternal health in this region and further expansion of the services and facilities are recommended in coming days in scenario of increasing number of patients.

Abstract:
Safe motherhood practice is still poor among the unprivileged groups like the Dalit of Nepal. Low socio-economic condition and lack of awareness in the Dalit community seems to have negative impact on women health and safe motherhood practice. This paper describes the practice of safe motherhood in the Dalit community based on quantitative data collected from 120 mothers. The respondents were interviewed by using interview schedule. It is concluded that lack of education and awareness, low socioeconomic condition, teenage marriage and early pregnancy, improper antenatal care service, unsafe delivery at home, improper postnatal checkup and traditional attitudes indicate that safe motherhood practice is not satisfactory in the Dalit community.

Abstract:
This book illustrates the continuing challenges as well as the new paradoxes linked to childbirth in South Asia. It brings together anthropologists and sociologists working in different contexts (at the hospital, within the community) and in a variety of settings (rural, urban) in India, Nepal, Pakistan, and Bangladesh. While women in Western countries have pressed for more home deliveries, and for the mitigation of some of the effects of the male appropriation and over-medicalized experience of motherhood, most developing countries are promoting institutionalized deliveries and stigmatizing poor women who deliver at home. In addition, new information technologies are being pressed into service; for example, to identify high-risk mothers and to offer them advice through social media. Such an evolution is particularly salient in South Asia where childbirth has long been an issue, not only for the colonial government, which sometimes used women’s poor health to justify imperialist interests, but also for independent successor states, who have implemented decisive schemes within the last decade, after being long accused of neglecting women’s healthcare. Despite the increased attention being paid to maternal and child health, and the steady rise in institutional deliveries in South Asia, progress on reducing maternal and infant mortality has been slow and halting, with significant disparities across regions and social groups. Far from withering away, traditional birth attendants have seen a resurgence, in part due to the demeaning conditions offered to poor, low-caste, rural women in formal health settings. With this backdrop, the authors explore the ethical and social implications of the changes being introduced in the technologies and social arrangements of childbirth in South Asia.
