Agree with wife to stay at the maternity waiting home seven days post partum. During pregnancy: Collect firewood and water.

- Selection of men to probe the behaviors was based on the behavior that was going to be probed. For example if the behavior is to seek ANC the man was whose wife is pregnant and didn’t have ANC or was not attending follow up sessions. Men whose wife in the third trimester of pregnancy, post partum and with newborn alive.Development of materials to record the behaviors and mark the days the behavior was practicedHome visits to negotiate the behaviors: selection of 9 behaviors to be practiced 4 times each. ( minimum 3 times, max 5 times)ssess enablers, barriers to probe the behaviorUse of job aids to remind the behavior and track the days and number of time the behavior was done
- Follow up visits to assess if the behavior was done every two weeks or monthly The counselor record the days the behavior was practiced and during the session counsel the man about the benefits, and negotiate with them to try again (in the case the man hasn’t been able to practice the behavior). If the men has achieved all the days the behavior was agreed to be practice, the counselor negotiates with him a new behaviorTo motivate more men, those who have achieved the tasked share with other men and familiy members the experience of practicing the behavior
