Demographic and obstetric data

The tool consisting of 13 items was constructed to assess the sociodemographic and obstetric data of the participants. It had items on age, education, religion, occupation, monthly family income, residential area, body mass index, gravida, gestation age in weeks, presentation, hemoglobin, previous history of back pain, and placenta position. Instructions were given to the respondents, and the researchers collected data from reports and interview techniques. A tick mark was placed on the most appropriate response by the participants.
