Results: 42.9% were primigravida and 57.1% were multigestational, and of the total number of deliveries attended, 61.2% were with an attendant and 38.8% without; of the deliveries with an attendant, the most frequent relationship was the couple with 52.0%, followed by the mother with 6.1%, others (father, brother, friends) with 2.0% and finally the sister with 1.0%.
