Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of prenatal exercise on the physical and psychological readiness of mothers before childbirth. Prenatal exercise is a form of physical activity specifically designed for pregnant women, which is believed to improve physical fitness, reduce stress, and psychologically prepare mothers for childbirth. This study used a quasi-experimental method with a pretest-posttest design on 40 pregnant women in their third trimester who participated in the prenatal exercise program at Community Health Center X. The results showed a significant increase in the physical and psychological readiness of pregnant women after participating in prenatal exercise regularly for 4 weeks. This indicates that prenatal exercise is effective in increasing maternal readiness for childbirth.
