Abstract

Labor pain arises because of the mother's physical and psychological response. Emotions become unstable due to anxiety and fear which worsen the condition of labor pain. The pain experienced by the mother during labor can give rise to fear which makes her anxious and often leads to panic attacks. This condition causes a physiological response that can disrupt the condition of the uterus when it contracts so that the impact of labor will last a long time. Usually, the mother who is about to give birth will find it difficult to adjust to the conditions of labor pain, so that uterine contractions cannot be controlled which causes the first stage to lengthen and the fetus to be disturbed. A prolonged labor process is a type of birth complication that is worrying, complicated, and unpredictable. A non-pharmacological method that can reduce labor pain is birth ball therapy. Research that has been conducted has found that birth ball exercises affect reducing labor pain. PkM is implemented through educational activities where there are 30 PkM participants. The results of the PkM implementation show that the PkM participants have been successfully educated through this PkM activity so that they can apply birth ball exercises to reduce labor pain in mothers. Due to the implementation of this PkM activity, it is hoped that there will be an increase in the knowledge of midwives who play a role in initial level services to provide appropriate steps in dealing with labor pain in mothers using complementary therapy, and birth ball exercises.

Abstract

Primigravida mothers are mothers who are experiencing pregnancy for the first time. Primigravida mothers are usually not ready to face pregnancy because it is something new to experience. The unpreparedness of primigravida mothers occurs both physically and psychologically. Anxiety is a feeling of discomfort manifested by restlessness, worry or fear. This is a manifestation of psychological and physiological factors. The third trimester is a time of alertness where at this time, pregnant women understand that their child can be born at any time. Mothers also feel impatient with the birth of the baby which makes mothers alert and vigilant. Anxiety during pregnancy can trigger changes in physical activity, sleep and nutrition. This can have an impact on fetal development and changes in the mother's mood. Yoga is a complementary therapy that can be an option to overcome anxiety in pregnant women, especially primigravida mothers in the third trimester. The design of this study was One Group Pretest and Posttest with the population being all primigravida pregnant women in the third trimester who checked their pregnancy at the Matahari Clinic. This study was tested on 17 samples taken using a purposive sampling technique. The results of the study showed that there was an average decrease in anxiety of 7.0000 and a p value of 0.000, which means that yoga exercises have an effect on reducing anxiety in pregnant women. So it is expected that midwives in the clinic are expected to apply yoga exercises to overcome anxiety in pregnant women, especially primigravida pregnant women in the third trimester.

Abstract

Labor is a critical moment filled with anticipation, emotion, and physiological change for pregnant women. Pain during the first stage of labor is a natural process but often leads to physical discomfort and psychological distress, potentially prolonging labor and increasing complication risks. This community service program (PkM) was designed as an educational seminar aimed at promoting red rose-based aromatherapy as a non-pharmacological approach to alleviate labor pain in the first stage. The seminar involved 30 pregnant women as active participants and was conducted at Nining Pelawati Clinic. Educational content included an introduction to aromatherapy, the therapeutic benefits of red rose essential oil, its sensory mechanisms through the olfactory system, and the correct usage procedures according to standardized operational protocols. Participants’ knowledge was assessed using structured pre-test and post-test questionnaires. The results revealed a notable increase in participants’ understanding, with average scores rising from 55.2 (pre-test) to 88.1 (post-test), indicating a 59.6% improvement. The highest gain (80%) was observed in understanding standard procedures of aromatherapy application. These findings demonstrate that interactive, participatory education combined with supportive media such as leaflets and instructional videos is highly effective in enhancing knowledge. This program is expected to support pregnant women in preparing for childbirth with greater confidence, reduced anxiety, and improved coping mechanisms through natural pain management techniques.
