Abstract

Maternal Mortality Rate (MMR) and Infant Mortality Rate (IMR) remain significant challenges in Indonesia's health development, largely due to a lack of knowledge and preparedness among mothers regarding pregnancy and childbirth. One strategy to address this issue is optimizing "Pregnant Women's Classes" to improve reproductive health literacy and birth preparedness. The program aims to enhance expectant mothers' knowledge and understanding of reproductive health, prenatal care, the recognition of pregnancy danger signs, and birth preparation. It is expected that mothers will apply the health information gained to their daily lives, thereby supporting healthy pregnancies, safe deliveries, and improved maternal and infant health. The implementation method for this community service activity involved conducting educational sessions followed by pre-tests and post-tests with ten pregnant women. The results showed a 60% to 85% increase in the participants' knowledge regarding the reproductive system and birth preparedness. This activity demonstrates that the participatory approach used in the Pregnant Women's Classes is effective in increasing knowledge about maintaining reproductive health. Further development regarding educational access is needed to ensure the program achieves broader reach and sustainability.
