Abstract

According to the United Nations International Emergency Fund (UNICEF) it is stated that 52% of pregnant mothers experience anxiety during pregnancy and World Health Organization (WHO) data shows that around (10%) of pregnant women worldwide experience anxiety disorders. Data obtained in Indonesia shows around 28.7% of pregnant mothers experience anxiety in the third trimester, mild anxiety 20%, moderate 53.3%, and severe 26.7% (Herlina, et al, 2023). One of the main factors of anxiety is husband support (Lestari et al, 2020). The purpose of this study is to determine the relationship of husband support and pregnancy complications with the level of anxiety. This study used an analytical observational research design with a cross-sectional approach. The research sample totaled 40 respondents taken using total sampling technique. Data collection was carried out using questionnaires, then analyzed univariately and bivariately with the Chi-Square test. The results of univariate analysis show low anxiety (27.5%), moderate (32.5%) and severe (40%). Distribution of husband support (35%), and husband not supportive (65%). Distribution of knowledge of pregnancy complications (35%), not knowledgeable (65%). The results of bivariate analysis show an effect of husband support on the level of anxiety, with significance value p-value=0.009<0.05. The results of bivariate analysis show an effect of knowledge of pregnancy complications on the level of anxiety with a significant value p-value<0.001 (p<0.05) at Telaga Dewa Health Center, Bengkulu City 2025. The researchers suggest that health workers, especially midwives, and the community regarding the level of anxiety can be integrated into prenatal class education activities as one strategy to reduce the level of anxiety in pregnant mothers.
