Abstract

If pregnant women's dietary needs are not met, pregnancy problems may arise, leading to diseases in both the mother and the fetus. The fetus's development can be impacted by the mother's nutritional state both before and throughout pregnancy. In other words, the mother's nutritional state both before and throughout pregnancy has a significant impact on the unborn child. The purpose of this study is to ascertain how pregnant women's dietary demands and knowledge relate to one another. This kind of study uses a cross-sectional study design and is quantitative in nature. With a sample size of thirty respondents, this study employed a complete sampling approach. The Chi-Square statistical test was employed in the study's data analysis. Pregnant women in the Lahei II Community Health Center's work area have dietary requirements and knowledge (p-value = 0.000), according to the research. Muara Lahei District, Central Kalimantan's North Barito Regency, Central Kalimantan. The implications of this study highlight the need for targeted interventions to enhance maternal nutrition knowledge, ultimately promoting better health outcomes for both mothers and their babies.
