Background : Nutritional status could be used as an assessment of the risk of premature rupture of membranes. One way to determine the nutritional status of pregnant women is to calculate the gestational weight gain of women based on body mass index before pregnancy. Objective : The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between gestational weight gain and the occurrences of premature rupture of membranes. Methodology : An observational analytic study with a cross sectional approach was adopted in this study. The data of this study were collected from the patients’ medical records at RSUD Lamaddukelleng of Wajo Regency in which the inclusion and exclusion sampling criteria were used. A total of 90 samples of patients’ medical record was obtained related to premature rupture of membranes. The collected data were processed and analyzed using the Chi-Square test with the p value of <0.05. Result : The results of the study indicated that there was a significant relationship between weight gain during pregnancy and the occurrence of premature rupture of membranes with the p value of 0.016. Conclusion : This study concluded that while there is a significant relationship between weight gain during pregnancy and premature rupture of membranes

Objective To evaluate weight gain during pregnancy according to the pregestational state in women who underwent prenatal care in Primary Health Care.Methods A cross-sectional study with the participation of 255 pregnant women. Socioeconomic and demographic variables were collected using a structured questionnaire. Women were evaluated for nutritional status and dietary intake. Data related to the age of the pregnant woman, gestational week, current weight, pregestational weight, and height were obtained from the prenatal follow-up form. The Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) was used for statistical analysis.Results Pregestational nutritional status assessment showed that 43.2% (n=110) of the women started gestation with overweight and 4.3% (n=11) started with low weight. 51% percent (n=130) gained gestational weight above the recommended level. The mean age of women with pregestational BMI ≥ 25 kg/m² was significantly higher than that of those with BMI <25 kg/m² (p<0.001). Total energy (p=0.037) and calcium (p=0.004) intake were higher in women with weight gain above the recommended.Discussion The results presented highlight the importance of strategies in public health to avoid excess weight gain during pregnancy.Conclusion Pregnant women presented a gestational weight gain above the recommended maximum value according to pregestational BMI, which may contribute to adverse maternal and infant outcomes.

<p>Prepregnancy BMI (Body Mass Index) is used as a guide to the nutritional status of the mother before pregnancy and also determine the optimal weight gain in pregnancy. Meanwhile, weight gain during pregnancy is a decisive indicator of the nutritional status of the mother. This retrospective study design aimed to determine the relationship of pre-pregnant BMI and maternal weight gain during pregnancy with birth weight babies. The sample was 71 mothers with children aged 0-6 months were selected by purposive sampling. The results showed 67.6% most respondents in this study had pre-pregnant BMI normal and 62% of respondents experienced weight gain during pregnancy, according to the recommendations. There is a significant relationship between pre-pregnant BMI birth weight (p=0.006), as well as weight gain during pregnancy had no significant relationship with birth weight, with p=0.024.</p>

Nutrition is a process of using food that is consumed normally. Nutrition in pregnancy is a healthy and balanced diet that must be consumed during pregnancy. Assessment of the nutritional status of pregnant women can be known by the presence of weight gain during pregnancy, measuring the upper arm circumference (LILA), and measuring Hb. Nutrition plays a major role in maternal and child health. Poor maternal nutritional status will affect growth and development during pregnancy. The benefits of balanced nutrition during pregnancy are meeting the nutritional needs of the mother and fetus, achieving nutritional status under normal circumstances. Maternal weight before pregnancy and weight gain during pregnancy is less (underweight) or more (overweight) than normal will make pregnancy a risk (low risk). This study aims to determine the knowledge of pregnant women about nutrition during pregnancy in Sialang Jaya Village in 2021, the research method used is a descriptive method with a cross sectional research design. The population in this study were pregnant women, with a sample of 30 respondents. Sampling using Total Sampling. In this study, the measuring instrument used was in the form of a questionnaire as many as 20, while the data analysis was carried out by univariate analysis which resulted in a frequency distribution. The results showed that based on the knowledge of 30 respondents who had good knowledge as many as 3 respondents (10.0%), 13 respondents with sufficient knowledge (43.3%), and those with less knowledge were 14 respondents (46.7%). The conclusion from the research conducted by researchers is that the average knowledge of pregnant women about nutrition during pregnancy in Sialang Jaya Village 2021 is less knowledgeable. To increase knowledge, pregnant women should get information directly from health workers, social media, the environment and others related to pregnant women.

Berat badan lahir 2.500 gram yang hingga kini merupakan standar ukuran risiko morbiditas dan mortalitas bayi merupakan faktor risiko penting yang berdampak hingga usia dewasa. Saat ini, bayi dengan berat badan lahir di bawah 3.000 gram dihubungkan dengan risiko penyakit degeneratif pada usia dewasa. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengetahui hubungan berat badan lahir dengan status gizi ibu meliputi berat badan prahamil, pertambahan berat badan selama kehamilan, dan kadar hemoglobin ibu pada trimester ketiga kehamilan. Penelitian kuantitatif dengan desain cross sectional ini menggunakan sumber data sekunder rekam medis Rumah Sakit Ibu dan Anak Budi Kemuliaan Jakarta. Analisis dilakukan secara bivariat dan multivariat menggunakan metode uji chi square dan korelasi regresi. Hasil studi menunjukkan hubungan yang bermakna antara berat badan prahamil dan pertambahan berat badan ibu selama kehamilan dengan berat badan lahir. Setelah dikontrol berbagai variabel lain, analisis regresi logistik ganda menemukan berat badan ibu prahamil, pertambahan berat badan selama kehamilan, usia ibu, dan urutan kelahiran merupakan faktor yang memengaruhi berat badan lahir. Berat badan prahamil ibu merupakan faktor yang paling berpengaruh terhadap berat badan lahir (odds ratio, OR = 6,64). Oleh sebab itu, ibu dengan status gizi prahamil kurang yang sedang merencanakan kehamilan perlu lebih diperhatikan.Kata kunci: Berat badan lahir, kehamilan, mortalitas bayi, status gizi ibuAbstractThe weight of 2.500 gram is still being used as the cut off point to predict the risk of baby’s morbidity and mortality. Recently birth weight of less than 3.000 gram is being rigorously assess as a risk factor for noncommunicable disease in adulthood. Therefore it is important to assess factors that are affecting the fetal growth and development. The objectives of this study is to determine the relationship between infant’s birth weight and mother’s nutritional status, i.e. pre-pregnancy weight, weight gain during pregnancy, and maternal haemoglobin level in the 3rd trimester as well as several other factors. The study design is cross sectional using secondary data from medical record of Budi Kemuliaan Hospital Jakarta. The result of chi square and correlation regression test shows there is significant relationship between prepregnancy weight and weight gain during pregnancy and birth weight. The multiple logistic regression test reveals that pre-pregnancy weight, weight gain during pregnancy, maternal age, and birth order are factors that are effecting birth weight significantly, with prepregnancy weight as the dominant factor (odds ratio, OR = 6,643). Therefore, it is imperative to give more attention to undernourished women who are planning their pregnancy. Key words: Birth weight, pregnancy, infant mortality, mother nutritional status

Introduction. Teenage pregnancy at risk of having a baby with low birth weight (LBW). This happens because of the condition of the mother is still in the growth, physical development is not perfect so it can be detrimental to the health of mother and fetus. The research objective is to analyze the effect of nutritional status and nutrient intake of mothers of low birth weight in pregnancy adolescence.Methods:  The study design was observational with prospective cohort approach.The subject is the population of third trimester pregnant women aged 16-19 years amounted to 27 people. The nutritional status measured by antropometry. Nutrient intake was measured by 24-hour food recall method. Data were analyzed by calculating the relative riskResults: 66,7% had a protein energy malnutrition, 51,9% had less weight gain during pregnancy, and 59,3% are anemic. The mean intake of energy, protein, folic acid, iron, zinc, vitamin A and C are in not enough categories. The relative risk test showed that less weight gain during pregnancy (RR= 3,71;95% CI 1,34-10,25, low energy intake (RR =6.03; 95% CI 5,68-898,64), low protein (RR= 13,00;95% CI 1,97-85,45), low folic acid (RR = 13,00;95% CI 1,97-85,45), low iron (RR= 4,00;95% CI 1,71-9,34) at risk of having low birth weight. Conclusions: Pregnant women-adolescence with less weight gain during pregnancy, energy protein malnutrition and low energy, protein, folic acid and iron intake at risk of having low birth weight.
