Family support can enhance mothers' motivation and willingness to attend regular antenatal care (ANC) visits. Conversely, a lack of family support may reduce pregnant women's interest in utilizing maternal healthcare services during pregnancy. This study aimed to determine the effect of family support on the interest of second-trimester pregnant women in attending antenatal care (ANC) visits at the South Amuntai Community Health Center. This study employed a quantitative research design using a cross-sectional approach. The study population consisted of second-trimester pregnant women residing in the working area of the South Amuntai Community Health Center. A total of 82 respondents were selected using a purposive sampling technique.
