Abstract

Chronic Energy Deficiency (CED) in pregnant women is a nutritional problem that can increase the risk of complications during pregnancy and childbirth, as well as impact the health of both mother and baby. An unbalanced diet is suspected to be one of the factors contributing to CED; however, empirical evidence from various regions still shows mixed results. This study aims to analyze the effect of dietary patterns among pregnant women on the incidence of Chronic Energy Deficiency (CED) in the service area of the Sei Pinang Community Health Center (UPT Puskesmas). The study employed a quantitative analytical design with a cross-sectional approach. The sample consisted of 30 pregnant women selected using total sampling. Dietary data were collected via a questionnaire, while CED status was determined based on Upper Arm Circumference (UAC) measurements. Data analysis was conducted using univariate and bivariate methods with the Lambda test at a 95% significance level. The results showed that the majority of respondents had poor dietary patterns (93.3%), while CED was found in 10.0% of respondents. Statistical test results showed no significant association between the dietary patterns of pregnant women and the prevalence of KEK (p=0.667). These findings indicate that the prevalence of KEK is not solely influenced by dietary patterns but is also likely influenced by other factors such as health status, physical activity, economic status, and individual characteristics. The results of this study provide a basis for strengthening nutrition education efforts, monitoring nutritional status, and implementing more comprehensive interventions in antenatal care to prevent chronic energy deficiency in pregnant women.

Abstract

Breast milk is the best source of nutrition for infants; however, the coverage of exclusive breastfeeding has not yet reached the expected target. One factor influencing breastfeeding success is maternal motivation, which needs to be fostered starting from pregnancy through appropriate education. This study aims to analyze the effect of education on the importance of breast milk on the motivation of third-trimester pregnant women in preparing for breastfeeding in the service area of the Nuangan Community Health Center. The study used a pre-experimental design with a one-group pretest-posttest design. The study sample consisted of 30 third-trimester pregnant women selected using total sampling. Data were collected using motivation questionnaires administered before and after the educational intervention and were then analyzed univariately and bivariately using the Wilcoxon test with a 95% significance level. The results showed that before the intervention, the majority of respondents had “adequate” motivation (86.7%), and none had “good” motivation. After receiving education, 76.7% of respondents had “good” motivation, while those in the “adequate” category decreased to 10.0%. The analysis results showed a significant effect of education on the importance of breastfeeding on the motivation of third-trimester pregnant women in preparing for breastfeeding (p=0.000), with a strong correlation (r=0.797). Antenatal education has been proven effective in increasing mothers’ motivation to prepare for the breastfeeding process; therefore, it needs to be continuously integrated into antenatal care as an effort to support the success of exclusive breastfeeding.
