Abstract

Background: Diet is a description of the types and amounts of food consumed each day. The amount of food intake of the mother during pregnancy is one of the factors that can affect the weight and length of the baby's birth.

Methods: This study aims to determine the relationship between maternal diet during pregnancy and the length and birth weight of the baby. This research uses a Cross Sectional Study Retrospective design

Results: The results of the study showed that 62.2% of mothers' diets during pregnancy applied a good diet during pregnancy and 37.8% applied a poor diet. In terms of birth length, 85.6% of babies had normal birth length and 14.4% had short birth length. In terms of birth weight, 91.1% had normal birth weight and 8.9% had low birth weight. The mother's diet during pregnancy with the baby's birth length was marked with a p-value of 0.004 (p-value <0.05) which means there is a significant relationship between the mother's diet during pregnancy with the baby's birth length. The mother's diet during pregnancy with the baby's birth weight was marked with a p-value of 0.000 (p-value <0.05) which means there is a significant relationship between the mother's diet during pregnancy with the baby's birth weight.

Conclusion: to improve education and counseling on the importance of nutritional intake and diet for pregnant women, so that growth and development of the fetus and mother are better, and give birth to children with normal body length and birth weight.
