Brief Summary

The purpose of this research is to understand the relationship between trust in the health care system and choice of contraception during the postpartum period among pregnant women receiving prenatal care. Research subjects will complete a questionnaire at enrollment and between delivery and within 5 days of hospital discharge. A chart review will also be completed to gather use of a birth control method at the six week postpartum visit as well as pertinent medical diagnoses and recorded data such as height, weight, body mass index, and contraceptive plan as documented in the postpartum medical chart.

A questionnaire will be administered during the early stages of prenatal care \& again during the postpartum period. The initial questionnaire will assess trust in the health care system, locus of control, religiosity, health literacy \& collect information about demographics, contraceptive \& reproductive history, future pregnancy intentions, \& baseline knowledge about contraception. The postpartum questionnaire will repeat questions about future pregnancy \& contraception intentions, trust in the health care system, knowledge of contraception and collect new information about characteristics of antenatal contraceptive counseling received including whether a provider recommended a specific method of contraception, the amount of counseling received, \& the type of counseling received.
