Abstract

In Indonesia, there are still many postpartum mothers who abstain from eating during the postpartum period, out of 4,406,437 postpartum mothers who abstain from eating, which is as much as 86%. Abstaining from eating is a term used to describe a person's practice of not consuming certain foods due to cultural prohibitions passed down from generation to generation. The purpose of this study is to determine the relationship between maternal knowledge about nutrition and the behavior of abstinence from postpartum eating in the Work Area of the UPTD Puskesmas Simpang Kiri, Subulussalam City in 2025. This study is correlational analytics with a cross sectional approach using primary data and secondary data. The population in this study is all postpartum mothers in the Work Area of the UPTD Simpang Kiri Health Center. The sampling technique in this study used Total sampling, with a sample of 32 respondents and the measuring tool used was a questionnaire. The results of the study using the chi-square test obtained a result of 0.000 <0.05, so it can be concluded that there is a relationship between maternal knowledge about nutrition and the behavior of abstinence from postpartum eating in the UPTD Puskesmas Simpang Kiri Work Area of Subulussalam City in 2025. It is hoped that health workers, especially midwives, can further improve the quality of midwifery services, one of which is by increasing counseling on nutrition during the postpartum period.

Abstract

Pregnancy-related low back pain (LBP) is prevalent in late gestation and can negatively affect physical comfort and psychological well-being. Non-pharmacological interventions such as antenatal yoga are increasingly incorporated into routine care; however, pragmatic evidence from community-based settings remains limited. This study examined within-subject changes in LBP severity among third-trimester pregnant women participating in a structured antenatal-yoga program delivered at a community midwifery clinic. Researchers conducted a single-group pre-experimental pretest-posttest study at an independent midwifery clinic in Gunungsitoli, Indonesia. Forty pregnant women ≥28 weeks' gestation were recruited through purposive sampling. The intervention consisted of supervised prenatal-yoga sessions held three times per week over four weeks. Pain intensity was assessed before and after the program using the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) and categorical severity bands (mild, moderate, severe). Pre-post differences were analysed using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test. Participation in antenatal yoga was associated with a clinically meaningful reduction in pain severity. Prior to the intervention, 62.5% of participants reported moderate pain and 37.5% reported mild pain; no cases of severe pain were observed. Following the intervention, 82.5% reported mild pain and 17.5% reported moderate pain. The change in NRS scores was statistically significant (p < 0.001). In this pragmatic third-trimester cohort, engagement in a structured antenatal yoga program was linked to reduced LBP severity and a shift toward milder pain categories. These findings support the feasibility of integrating antenatal yoga into routine prenatal care as a non-pharmacological option. Future controlled studies incorporating effect sizes, confidence intervals, functional outcomes, adherence andsafety monitoring, and short-term follow-up are recommended to strengthen casual inference and inform optimal program design.
