Abstract

The first thousand days of life, beginning with pregnancy, are crucial for a child's development, influenced by factors like maternal nutrition, health, antenatal care (ANC), exclusive breastfeeding, birth weight, immunization, and complementary feeding. Regular ANC visits are vital for monitoring the health of both mother and fetus. This cross-sectional study examined the association between ANC history, anemia during pregnancy, exclusive breastfeeding, and maternal dietary practices with child nutritional status in Ciranggem Village, Sumedang Regency (2021–2023). Data from 30 mothers of children aged 2–5 years were analyzed using Chi-square tests. Significant associations (p < 0.05) were found between all four maternal factors and child nutritional outcomes, highlighting their collective impact on growth. The study used an analytical observational design with total sampling. Results showed 73.3% of mothers received ANC, practiced exclusive breastfeeding, and maintained a healthy diet, while 26.7% had a history of anemia. Children's nutritional status was as follows: Normal (66.7%, 20 children), Stunting (20%, 6 children), Underweight (10%, 3 children), and Overweight (3.3%, 1 child). Statistical analysis yielded a p-value < 0.05, indicating a significant link between maternal factors and child nutrition.

Abstract

Introduction: Child growth and development are affected by stunting, a chronic nutritional problem that occurs primarily in communities with low nutritional levels. Maternal nutritional status during pregnancy is a major cause of stunting, including anemia and chronic energy deficiency. Objective:to determine the relationship between maternal anemia and CED history on stunting in toddlers aged 0–59 months. Method: The following study used an analytical design with a retrospective approach. Data were obtained from medical records at the Welamosa Community Health Center and analyzed using the Chi-Square test and logistic regression. Result and Discussion: Of the 147 respondents, 70.7% of toddlers experienced stunting. The analysis results showed that maternal anemia had a significant relationship with stunting (p-value = 0.000, OR = 6.507). CED in mothers also showed a significant relationship with stunting (p-value = 0.008, OR = 3.676). Multivariate analysis showed that anemia was the most dominant factor in stunting compared to CED. Mothers with a history of anemia and chronic kidney disease (CED) are at higher risk of giving birth to stunted children. Conclusions: more optimal nutritional interventions for pregnant women are needed through education, iron supplementation, and regular nutritional status monitoring to prevent stunting and improve maternal and child health
