Introduction: Health is a field that is very closely related to women's duties because the role of women is the reproductive role that is in the realm of the household. Health seeking behavior is preceded by a decision-making process that requires social support from spouses or other family members so that it can potentially improve the health status of women and children in the family. This study aims to explore the differences in family support for mothers in health seeking behavior when ANC, childbirth, and toddlers are sick in rural areas. Methods:The study was conducted using qualitative methods with in-depth interviews with 6 mothers, 6 husbands and 4 mother-in-laws who in their families had toddlers who had experienced illness in the last 3 months. The study was conducted in Banaran subvillage, Sleman District.
