Summary, etc. Abstract: <br/><br/>Background: Maternal morbidity and mortality are major public health concerns in most developing countries and in under-resourced settings. The WHO estimates that every year approximately 8 million women endure pregnancy-related complications and about half a million die as a result. Most pregnant women hope to give birth safely to a baby that is alive and well and to see it grow up in good health. However, normal pregnancy may be accompanied by problems and complications which are potentially life threatening to the mother and/or the fetus. <br/><br/>Methods: Of the awareness about obstetric complications among pregnant women attending ANC. Data collected by means of a structured questionnaire in both Swahili and English language and a statistical package for social sciences (SPSS) used in data analysis.<br/><br/>Results: Regarding the awareness of danger signs of obstetrics complications, 75.4% (219) of respondents spontaneously indicated at least one danger sign of obstetric complications that can occur during the pregnancy, childbirth or after delivery. Participants were asked whether they had experienced any danger signs of obstetric complications during previous pregnancies and delivery 49.7% (n=144) of respondents had experienced danger signs of obstetric complications during previous pregnancies and childbirth, and 11.7% (n=34) were primigravida. <br/><br/>Conclusion: Awareness about the danger signs of obstetric complications is important step in reducing the maternal mortality and morbidity. Every woman should be made aware of the possibility of complications during pregnancy, childbirth and after deliver. Not only pregnant women but other family and community members should be aware of and have information on danger signs of obstetric complications. This study targeted pregnant women attending ANC and inadequate. The absence of association between awareness of danger signs of obstetric complications and education was of concern. <br/>
