The attitudes of midwives towards women in labour certainly counts for their decision about where to give birth the next time they are pregnant. When the attitudes exhibit by midwives to mothers in labour are good, mothers tend to generalize a likeness to every midwife viewing the midwives as having the same character. On the other hand, when midwives exhibit a bad attitude to women in labour, it will be counted on the midwives as being wicked and unfriendly. As such negative attitude will bring negative outcome of the birth process such as prolonged labour, severe haemorrhage, severe labour pain, still birth e.tc. Hence, this research was conducted to determine the perceived effects of midwives attitude towards women in labour in Bayelsa State, Nigeria. A descriptive survey design was used, a sample of 80 respondents were selected using a simple random sampling technique. Questionnaire was used to obtain information from literate respondents; oral interview was used for the illiterate respondents using the same questions. The data collected was analyzed using descriptive statistics in form of tables and charts. The results of the study revealed that midwives exhibit both positive and negative attitude but the negative attitude (55%) outweighs the positive attitude (45%). These attitudes have effects on the woman in labour and it is a major factor influencing the women’s choice and decision about where to give birth. Hence, there is need for midwives to improve in their attitude towards women in labour in order to render quality care to the women and this will enable them to patronize the health care facilities in order to reduce maternal and perinatal mortality and morbidity rate. It was recommended that midwives need to be train and retrain on inter-personal skill in order to have positive and sensitive attitude towards their clients during labour.
