The objective was to get to know the clinical and obstetric problems women experience in prenatal care and to verify whether the women’s reports agreed with records on the prenatal care history, associating the problems with the type of birth. A cross-sectional study was undertaken at a University Hospital, involving 361 puerperal women between February and April 2013. In the analysis, descriptive statistics and the chi-squared test were applied. It was observed that 67.9% of the women experienced some problem. The most frequent was urinary tract infection, but the records in the prenatal history agreed with the reports in cases of hypertensive syndrome, urinary tract infection, premature labor and gestational diabetes. No statistically significant association was found between the problems and the type of birth. These findings can permit the planning of actions to guide health promotion measures.
