Abstract

Women are more at risk to stress in pregnancy than during the puerperium. One method of coping with stress is through physical exercise. Maryam Exercise can be used as an alternative to the development of pregnancy exercises in Indonesia because it covers the holistic aspects and easy to do. It is a combination of basic pregnancy exercises, Islamic prayer (Salat) movements and dhikr.  The purpose of this study was to examine the impact of Maryam exercise on the stress levels and cortisol serum levels among primiparous pregnant women. This study used a quasi-experimental study design, pre-test and post-test with non-equivalent control group. In the third trimester of 40 primiparous women  were randomly assigned into two groups such the experimental group (n=20) and the control group (n=20). The experimental group received the Maryam exercise while the control group received the standard antenatal exercise. There was a significant difference in stress levels between the intervention group and the control group before and after receiving the intervention (p <0.05). The cortisol levels also showed the significance difference between the intervention group and the control group before and after receiving the intervention (p <0.05). The findings of this study suggest that Maryam Exercise has a positive impact on stress levels and cortisol serum levels of primiparous pregnant women.

Abstract

Anemia is a significant public health problem with a prevalence of about 2 billion around the world.  Consuming the iron (Fe) tablets or foods containing iron were strategies for preventing iron deficiency. Vitamin C or ascorbic acid can increase iron absorption 4-fold, and an amount of 200 mg will increase iron absorption by at least 30%. Guava (Psidium Guajava) and papaya (Carica Papaya Linn) are examples of fruits that contain lots of ascorbic acids. The study aimed to investigate red guava juice and papaya juice on hemoglobin levels in pregnant women. This study applied the pre-experimental research with two groups, pre-test and post-test, without the control group. Thirty pregnant women were divided into two groups, such as group 1 received the Guava (n=15), and group 2 received the papaya (n=15). A paired T-test was used to test the mean value of pre-test and post-test within the group. An Independent t-test was done to determine the difference between groups. This study showed an increase in hemoglobin after two weeks of guava juice and papaya juice supplementation. However, the Independent t-test showed no significant difference between the two groups with a value of 0.617 (p >0.05). Both supplementations of 200 ml/day red guava juice and papaya juice with iron tablets for 14 weeks are equally effective in increasing hemoglobin levels in second and third-trimester pregnant women

Abstract

Background: Breastmilk production on the 2nd to 3rd day after delivery is still low and it can lead to breastfeeding adequacy problem. Hormonal constitute one of many factors that causing this condition. Therefore, there is a need for non-pharmacological interventions to increase breastmilk production in primpipara postpartum mothers. Objectives: The purpose of the study was to determine the effect of the SPEOS method (stimulation of endorphins, oxytocin, and suggestive massage) and classical music therapy on breastmilk production in primipara postpartum mothers. Methods: This study was a quasi-experiment with pretest and post-test with control group design. A total of 34 postpartum mothers from the first day to the fourth day were selected in this study randomly and were divided into an experimental group (EG) and control group (CG). Wilcoxon and Mann Whitney test was used for statistical analysis. Results: The average breastmilk production after the administration of the SPEOS method and music therapy interventions was increased significantly from 4.35 ml to 46.66 ml (p=0.0001) compared to control group 5.48 ml to 19.07 ml (p=0.0001). Conclusions: The combination of the SPEOS method and music therapy is effective in increasing breastmilk production in primipara postpartum mothers.
