Abstract
Objective
there is little evidence about disabled women׳s access to maternal and newborn health services in low-income countries and few studies consult disabled women themselves to understand their experience of care and care seeking. Our study explores disabled women׳s experiences of maternal and newborn care in rural Nepal.

Design
we used a qualitative methodology, using semi-structured interviews.

Setting
rural Makwanpur District of central Nepal.
