Material and Methods: A quantitative research approach, pre-experimental, one group pre and posttest design was used for this study. Data was collected from 50 postnatal mothers of selected hospital. Purposive sampling was used for selecting the samples. The investigator developed structured teaching programme with regard to the family planning methods. Structured knowledge questionnaire was used for data collection. Results: In posttest 92% study participants had adequate knowledge, and 8% had moderately adequate knowledge. The overall analysis of knowledge that the pretest mean is 18.88 and that of posttest is 21.30. The calculated ‘t’ value is 38.13, which is higher than the table ‘t’ value 4.21at 98 df with 0.05 level of significance. There was extremely significant difference between pretest and posttest levels of knowledge among postnatal mothers regarding family planning methods.
