Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Stunting is a significant nutritional problem related to the growth and development of toddlers. One aspect that influences the occurrence of stunting is the condition of the mother before pregnancy, the nutrition of the pregnant woman, and her weight and height. One way to prevent stunting can be through education for pregnant women so that it is hoped that there will be changes in behavior, and increasing knowledge and attitudes in pregnant women. Therefore, community service activities through education about stunting for pregnant women are very important. This community service activity aims to increase pregnant women's insight and knowledge about what stunting is and how to take preventive measures to prevent it. Methods for carrying out activities include exposure by resource persons, examination/measurement (ANC) as well as mentoring and training in exercise for pregnant women.
