Interviews and focus groups ranged in length from 90-120 minutes. Detailed notes taken during interviews were analysed using a grounded theory approach and the data was analysed using atlas-ti software.RESULTS: Major barriers to spacing contraception are: pro-natal social norms, pregnancy expectations early in marriage, to produce multiple sons, limited access to modern spacing contraceptives, family resistance to adopt contraceptives, lack of husband's involvement on family planning issues, myths, misconceptions, perceived side effects and negative attitudes toward specific contraceptives.CONCLUSION: Findings highlight the intersection of norms against spacing contraception, traditional gender ideologies and lack of male involvement as major barriers to the use of contraception.
