Abstract

Abstract Among the three delays that play a pivotal role in increasing maternal mortality, delay in transportation is a major challenge for the uptake of services for pregnant women in remote areas of Nepal. Due to difficult terrain and the lack of adequate public transportation, women face difficulties in reaching health facilities and end up giving birth on the way unsafely. Here, I describe the struggle of a pregnant woman who started her journey to deliver at health facility, but never reached it. She remained helpless in the middle of the highway, where our team intervened and conducted her delivery right over there.
