Abstract

Background: The early life period of 0–6 months is a crucial phase in child growth and development, where infant nutritional needs are highly dependent on the quality of breast milk. Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) plays a role in supporting infant growth and development, but evidence on the effect of DHA supplementation on infant growth is still variable. Objective: To analyze the effect of DHA supplementation in breastfeeding mothers on infant nutritional status and growth in early life. Methods: This study used a quasi-experimental design with a one-group pretest–posttest approach. The subjects were breastfeeding mothers with infants aged 0–6 months. The intervention was performed by providing DHA supplementation to breastfeeding mothers. Infant nutritional status and growth were assessed based on body weight, body length, and z-scores for BB/A and PB/A according to WHO standards. Data were analyzed using paired statistical tests. Results: DHA supplementation in breastfeeding mothers showed a trend towards improved infant nutritional status and growth, characterized by increased body weight, body length, and improvements in anthropometric z-scores. Conclusion: DHA supplementation in breastfeeding mothers has the potential to support infant growth without disrupting exclusive breastfeeding practices and can be considered as a nutritional intervention in primary health care.

Abstract

Sleep disturbances are common in third-trimester pregnancy due to discomfort and anxiety, potentially harming maternal and fetal health. This study aims to determine if prenatal yoga improves sleep quality. A case study was conducted on a pregnant woman in the third trimester in Surabaya from January to April 2025. Data were collected using interviews, observations, and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) before and after intervention. Prenatal yoga was delivered 4 times over 1 month, lasting 30-60 minutes per session. Results showed a decrease in PSQI score from 16 (poor) to 5 (good) after yoga. It is concluded that prenatal yoga improves sleep quality through relaxation and flexibility. Regular prenatal yoga is recommended to maintain fitness and rest before delivery.
