<![CDATA[Background: Pregnancy period trigger emotional challenges for women, not only due to hormonal changes but also due to physical, psychological, social, financial and cultural factors. Women’s reaction to stress or difficult conditions is considered as resilience. Pregnant women who have low levels of resilience tend to report high perceptions of stress, so increasing resilience in pregnant women is important for building positive coping strategies to minimize the negative effects of stress on the mother and fetus. One of the tools that is often used to assess resilience is Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC). This study aimed to test the validity and reliability of the 10-item CD-RISC on pregnant women sample. Method: This research was descriptive statistical to test the validity and reliability of the CD-RISC 10-items on 30 respondents in Magelang, Central Java. Result: The pearson correlation and cronbach alpha was used to assess validity and reliability. The statistical test results showed that the item correlation value for all items ranged from 0.711 to 0.906, r values from 10 items had score above the r table (0.361). The cronbach alpha value was 0.940. Discussion: Researchers assumed that apart from being valid and reliable, the resilience theory on the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC) shows relevance to culture and values adopted by pregnant women in Indonesia, therefore this tool can be employed to explore the level of resilience of pregnant women in quantitative or qualitative research. Conlussion: This study conclude that CD-RISC 10 items has good validity and reliability for assessing the resilience of pregnant women in Indonesia]]>

<![CDATA[Introduction: Studies reveal that regular utilization of maternal health care services reduces maternal morbidity and mortality in which these services are affected by complex factors which may be similar across populations. Methods: A community based cross sectional study was conducted from February to May of 2022. A total of 607 women who gave birth in the last 2 years and residing in the area for at least 6 months were selected by two stage cluster sampling technique. A predesigned and pretested questionnaire was used to collect data via face to face interview technique. Chi-square test and multivariable logistic regression were used for data analysis using SPSS (Version 26). Results: Magnitude of maternal health care services utilization was found as; attending antenatal care 99.9%, institutional delivery 99.3% and postnatal care 91.4%. The majority (91.4%) were aware of postnatal care. The proportion (91.5%) of women who utilized postnatal care among those with awareness about it was significantly greater (p<0.001) than the proportion of women who utilized it and with no awareness (63.5%). The nationwide lockdown due to COVID- 19, sudden onset of labor, feeling well were barriers to attending antenatal care, institutional delivery and postnatal care services respectively. Conclusion: Prevalence of antenatal care, institutional delivery and postnatal care services was higher than the national estimate. Improving the quality of care around the time of pregnancy, birth and postpartum is recommended to continuously sensitize the community about the services and further increase the utilization.]]>
