Abstract

Highlights
•The conventional antenatal education offered to future parents, does not meet solo mothers needs during labour, childbirth and parenthood.

•This study finds that information about becoming a solo mother was found both by formal- and informal sources.

• Solo mothers might benefit from small, structured classes with like-minded women.
