Abstract

Background: Prenatal yoga is a non-pharmacological intervention that offers significant benefits for the physical and psychological well-being of pregnant women. This study aims to explore pregnant women's and healthcare providers' experiences regarding the implementation of prenatal yoga and formulate policy recommendations supporting its integration into antenatal care (ANC) services. Method: This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach with an in-depth interview method with pregnant women, health workers, and heads of health centers. Data were analyzed using triangulation of sources, techniques, and contexts to enhance the validity of findings. NVivo software was employed to facilitate coding and thematic analysis. Result: The results show that prenatal yoga positively impacts stress reduction, body awareness, and childbirth preparation. However, its implementation still faces challenges such as the absence of formal programs, limited information, and lack of regulatory support. Conclusion: Therefore, inclusive health policies, structured training for healthcare workers, and cross-sector collaboration through a pentahelix approach are essential to make prenatal yoga a sustainable and accessible part of routine maternal health services.

Abstract

Background: Unmarried pregnancy in Indonesia remains closely associated with gendered moral norms and social stigma, which may limit women’s access to equitable maternal health services. Digital platforms such as YouTube function as public arenas where these norms are reproduced, contested, and potentially influence informal policy environments. Purpose: This study aims to analyze digital public sentiment toward unmarried pregnant women and to examine its implications for gender-responsive and intersectional maternal health policy in Indonesia. Methods: A qualitative descriptive study was conducted using content analysis of publicly available YouTube comments posted between January 2024 and 2026. Comments from highly engaged videos discussing unmarried pregnancy were anonymized and categorized into negative, positive, and neutral sentiment groups. Descriptive statistics were used to present proportional distributions. Results: Negative sentiment dominated the discourse (47.25%), followed by positive sentiment (39.32%) and neutral sentiment (13.44%). Although moral judgment and stigma remain prominent, a substantial proportion of comments express empathy and support. Conclusions: Digital public sentiment reflects persistent gender stigma surrounding unmarried pregnancy, alongside emerging supportive narratives. Integrating intersectional and rights-based approaches aligned with WHO recommendations is essential to strengthen inclusive maternal health policy and ensure equitable access to care for all women, regardless of marital status.
