<![CDATA[Antenatal Care (ANC) is a routine health service for pregnant women to monitor the physical and mental health of the mother and fetus, detect early complications, and provide childbirth education. ANC is mandatory at least six times during pregnancy (1x Trimester-1, 2x Trimester-2, 3x Trimester-3), with at least two examinations by a doctor. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between pregnant women's knowledge of pregnancy danger signs and ANC compliance. The research design used was quantitative with a cross-sectional approach. The population in the study were all married couples who received family planning counseling at PMB Misni Herawati Palembang, with a sample of 40 respondents using a purposive sampling method. Based on the results of the study, it was found that the relationship between pregnant women's knowledge of pregnancy danger signs and ANC compliance was 34 respondents (85%) who were compliant with ANC examinations, while 6 respondents (15%) were non-compliant. The study revealed that 32 (80%) of the 40 mothers knew about pregnancy danger signs, while 8 (20%) lacked knowledge about pregnancy danger signs during ANC check-ups. The study found a significant correlation between pregnant women's knowledge of pregnancy danger signs and ANC compliance (p-value = 0.046). Following this study, it is hoped that health workers, especially midwives, can further improve information and education to the public in providing comprehensive services to patients undergoing prenatal check-ups.]]>
