Abstract

Exclusive breastfeeding during the first six months of a baby's life is very important to support optimal growth and development and increase the child's immune system. However, the success rate of exclusive breastfeeding is still relatively low in some regions. This study aims to determine the influence of health education on maternal knowledge about exclusive breastfeeding using a pre-post test design. The study was conducted on 15 pregnant women in the working area of the Periukan Water Health Center, precisely in the second hamlet of Sukasari Village. An intervention in the form of exclusive breastfeeding counseling was given once, and data was collected using questionnaires before and after the intervention. The results of the analysis showed a significant increase in mothers' knowledge after being educated, with an average pre-test score of 44 and post-test of 92. The results of the statistical test using the paired t-test showed a p value of < 0.05, which means that there was a significant difference before and after counseling. The conclusion of this study is that health education has a positive effect on increasing maternal knowledge about exclusive breastfeeding. It is recommended that educational activities like this be carried out on an ongoing basis to support exclusive breastfeeding practices in the community.

Abstract

. Stunting is a serious public health problem, characterized by a condition of failure to thrive in toddlers due to chronic malnutrition, especially in the first 1,000 days of life. The impact is not only on physical growth, but also cognitive development and productivity in the future. Based on data, the prevalence of stunting in Musi Rawas Regency is still quite high, at 15.3%. In Wonokerto Village, 6 out of 38 toddlers (15.8%) were found to experience stunting, indicating the need for interventions based on education and community empowerment. This activity aims to increase awareness and knowledge of parents of toddlers regarding the importance of balanced nutrition, good parenting patterns, and the provision of nutritious supplementary foods (PMT) based on local food ingredients. The methods used include nutrition and parenting counseling, demonstrations of making PMT, and monitoring toddler growth. The results of the implementation showed an increase in knowledge of mothers of toddlers, changes in behavior in feeding children, and active community involvement in PMT activities. Education integrated with direct practice has proven effective in building community awareness and participation. This activity is expected to support government programs in accelerating the reduction of stunting at the village level in a sustainable manner.
