Abstract

Stunting is a condition of growth failure in children under five caused by chronic malnutrition, particularly during the first 1,000 days of life. Stunting affects both physical growth and brain development. Various factors contribute to stunting, including inadequate parenting practices. Maternal parenting patterns during pregnancy play a crucial role in preventing stunting. This study aims to analyze the influence of maternal parenting patterns during pregnancy on the incidence of stunting in West Aceh District. The research employs an analytical survey method with a cross-sectional study design. The study was conducted in West Aceh District from September 2023 to March 2024. The population includes all mothers with children aged 0–24 months, totaling 3,785 individuals. A sample size of 320 mothers was determined using the Issac and Michael table. The sampling technique used multistage random sampling. Data analysis consisted of univariate and multivariate analyses, with the latter using multiple logistic regression tests at a 95% confidence level (α=0.05). The study results indicate that maternal parenting patterns significantly influencing stunting include maternal dietary intake (p=0.001; ExpB=43.601), environmental health (p=0.001; ExpB=41.250), healthcare services (p=0.001; ExpB=41.250), maternal knowledge (p=0.001; ExpB=29.561), maternal attitudes (p=0.001; ExpB=60.539), and maternal actions (p=0.001; ExpB=69.996). Recommendations include encouraging couples to pay more attention to maternal health during pregnancy. Health services, such as health departments and community health centers, are advised to implement programs emphasizing the importance of proper maternal parenting during pregnancy and to establish community groups that focus on maternal health.
