Abstract
The rate of Chronic Energy Deficiency (CED) cases is still very high in Indonesia,
including in West Aceh Regency. In 2018, 168 pregnant mothers in West Aceh suffered from CED. The current research aimed to reduce the number of CED cases among pregnant mothers. The design of this research was observational in nature and utilized a control case, with the population that included all pregnant mothers in Aceh Barat Regency. The sample was composed of a case group was composed of mothers who suffered from CED and did not possess Mother and Child (MCH) booklets, while the control group was composed of pregnant mothers who were closest neighbors to the members of the case group, who did not suffer from CED and owned MCH booklets. Penelitian ini dilakukan pada bulan FebruariJuni 2018. Data collection was conducted through interviews and measurements. Data was analyzed through univariate, bivariate (chi-square), and multivariate (multiple logistic regression test) methods. The research found that there was lack of knowledge among pregnant mothers who suffered from CED (61.4%), who attended less than four sessions of ANC (antenatal care) (60.5%), who did not consume Fe tablets (59.4%), and who did not
consume adequate nutrition (67%). The most dominant risk factor was Fe tablet consumption with a value of p = 0.000 and OR = 9.2. CED among pregnant mothers can be controlled by optimal utilization of MCH booklets through empowering family members and understanding that Fe consumption is essential during pregnancy
