Abstract

Background: Public awareness of the quality of health through the implementation of empowerment programs initiated by the government aims to improve the quality of health for all communities. The role of health professionals is needed to be able to educate the public about how to take care of their health, how to meet nutritional intake, and how to take good care of the baby after the mother gives birth. Aims: The purpose of the study is to provide insight into public awareness of the importance of healthy living behaviors, especially for families who have problems with low-weight birth babies (≤ 2500 g). To evaluate the proper way of self-care during pregnancy, and the type of nutrient intake that should be given to newborns to improve their health. Methods: The quality of public health is carried out through qualitative study with a systematic review approach, to be able to explain the phenomenon that occurs in families with low socioeconomic status and also experience problems with babies with low birth weight. Sampling data was used in this study using purposive techniques based on inclusion criteria with participants of 89 informants. Secondary data in the study included being grouped by occupation, family income, and how to provide nutrition to babies with low birth weight. The data is then analyzed using software (NVivo version 12). Results: The results showed that of the 89 respondents interviewed, 58 (58%) mothers were able to explain nutritional needs during pregnancy. The respondents can explain effectively to be able to care for children with low weight conditions and mothers can also provide a balanced nutritional intake to newborns periodically and can control the health of the baby to the hospital intensively. Conclusion: The important role of the government in promoting the ideal marriage age and socialization through a safe birth process. To avoid the occurrence of babies with low birth weight, adequate nutritional intake is needed during pregnancy.
