Anemia affects a significant number of pregnant women in Indonesia, with a prevalence of approximately 48.9%. In Lampung, the incidence remains high, posing serious risks to both mothers and their unborn children due to low hemoglobin levels. This study aimed to determine the effect of nutritional status on the incidence of anemia among pregnant women at the Tanjung Agung Health Center. Using an analytical survey with a cross-sectional approach, the study included 67 first-trimester pregnant women selected through total sampling. Data were obtained from secondary sources, specifically upper arm circumference (LILA) measurements and anemia status recorded on maternal health cards. Findings revealed that 80% of pregnant women with poor nutritional status experienced anemia. Statistical analysis showed a significant relationship between nutritional status and anemia, with a p-value of 0.001 (≤ α 0.05) and an odds ratio (OR) of 8.53. This indicates that pregnant women with poor nutritional status are over eight times more likely to develop anemia. In conclusion, poor nutritional status significantly increases the risk of anemia during pregnancy. The study recommends that families actively support pregnant women by promoting a varied and iron-rich diet and ensuring regular hemoglobin checks during antenatal visits to help prevent complications.

The learning process requires media that align with technological advancements to enhance effectiveness and innovation. One such tool is the MULTERIANA Application, designed to support improved learning outcomes. This study aimed to analyze the effectiveness of the MULTERIANA Application in increasing student interest and skills at the Harapan Keluarga Midwifery Academy. The research used a pre-experimental design with a one-group pretest-posttest approach. The population included all fourth-semester female students, with a total sample of 57 participants selected through total sampling. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon test. The results showed a significant effect of the MULTERIANA Application on student interest in learning APN (midwifery care in normal delivery), with a p-value of 0.000. Similarly, the application significantly improved students’ skills in practicing normal delivery care, also with a p-value of 0.000. Based on the WebQual 4.0 assessment, the application was rated 54.6% effective before the intervention and improved to 76.3% afterward, indicating enhanced effectiveness. In conclusion, the MULTERIANA Application successfully increased both interest and skills in midwifery students. It is recommended that this application be used as a learning medium in delivery care courses to help students practice APN more effectively and independently.

Childbirth is a long process, 13-14 hours for primigravida mothers and 6-7 hours for multigravida mothers. In this situation, there are many changes and may cause stress. Neglecting this condition can negatively affect both parties. Mindfulness can help with anxiety in this study. Focusing on the present moment, environment, and activities around you is known as mindfulness. This study aims to determine how effective the use of audio is to reduce anxiety in pregnant women before labor through the relationship of self-awareness between mother and fetus. This study uses a pre-experiment method before and after the experiment in a one-group design. With the total sampling technique, the study population consisted of 21 pregnant women. TM III was conducted in the working area of Rejosari Health Center in July 2024. The Pregnancy Anxiety Scale questionnaire and audio recording were used as media. The results of the two mean difference test analyses showed that the anxiety level of respondents before the self-awareness intervention was 26.76 and after the intervention was 22.38, with a p-value of 0.000. This means that mindfulness activities using audio helped lower the anxiety of pregnant women before giving birth.

Scraping therapy, known locally as kerokan, is a traditional treatment still widely practiced in Indonesia to address minor ailments such as colds, muscle aches, and fever. Family perceptions strongly influence the preference for scraping therapy as a primary form of home care. This study aims to explore how families perceive scraping therapy as an alternative to modern medicine. A qualitative case study design was employed, involving participants who had received or administered scraping therapy in the past year, were aged 18 or older, and participated voluntarily. Purposive sampling was used to select participants. Data were collected through in-depth interviews and focus group discussions (FGDs), focusing on their knowledge, motivations, and personal experiences. Thematic analysis was conducted to identify key patterns and meanings. The findings revealed that many families consider scraping therapy effective, affordable, and easy to perform. It is viewed as a cultural tradition passed down through generations and a practical solution amid limited access to healthcare facilities. Nevertheless, some concerns were noted, including potential skin irritation and the absence of scientific validation. Despite these issues, cultural beliefs and accessibility make scraping therapy the preferred choice for minor health problems. Healthcare professionals should educate communities while respecting local traditions to ensure safe practices.

Inadequate breast milk production for newborns might result in impaired growth and development. Enhancing breast milk production can be achieved by lactation massage, a therapeutic technique including massage movements on the breast area that stimulates lymphatic and blood circulation, increases milk production, and alleviates issues related to blocked milk ducts.

Family support plays a vital role in promoting the health of pregnant women, particularly in ensuring they meet their daily nutritional needs. This qualitative case study was conducted in Kelurahan Baru, Pasar Rebo District, East Jakarta, and focused on investigating how family support contributes to increasing pregnant women’s awareness of nutritional adequacy. The study involved pregnant women and their closest family members, selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using in-depth interviews and focus group discussions to gain a greater insight into how family support influences nutritional behavior. The findings show that husbands and mothers-in-law are perceived as the most influential sources of support. Pregnant women reported receiving emotional encouragement, help with food preparation, and collaborative decision-making, all of which increased their nutritional awareness and consistency in maintaining a healthy diet. Additionally, the study identified the family's nutrition knowledge, communication quality, and access to nutritious foods as key factors that shaped the effectiveness of support. In conclusion, the study emphasizes the importance of involving close family members in maternal nutrition efforts. Empowering families through education and encouraging their active involvement in maternal care can be a strategic approach to improving both maternal and fetal health outcomes during pregnancy.

According to Riskesdas data, menarche among adolescents aged 10–19 years typically occurs at age 12 (42.8%), age 15 (96.2%), and age 18 (99.6%). Many adolescents experience anxiety during their first menstruation due to a lack of knowledge, leaving them psychologically, mentally, and emotionally unprepared for the bodily changes. In today’s digital era, there is a growing need for accessible educational tools that provide accurate information about menstruation. To address this, an application called “Permen” (short for *Persiapan Menarche*) was developed to help adolescent girls prepare for their first menstruation anytime and anywhere. The aim of this study was to design a mobile-based menarche preparation application using the System Development Life Cycle (SDLC) method. The SDLC model applied was the waterfall model, which follows a structured, step-by-step approach in software development. The research successfully resulted in the creation of the “Permen” application, which has undergone both black box testing and expert validation. The application provides comprehensive and age-appropriate information about menarche, helping reduce anxiety and increase awareness among adolescent girls. In conclusion, the “Permen” application serves as a practical educational tool to support young girls during the transition of puberty by improving their readiness and understanding of menstruation.
