Abstract

Background: Nutrition problems in Indonesia remain a major challenge that impacts the quality of human resources, with one of the main issues being stunting. Stunting occurs as a result of chronic malnutrition that lasts from the pre-pregnancy period to the first 1000 days of life (HPK) so that the preconception period, especially the nutrition of prospective pregnant women, needs to be considered to prepare nutrition during pregnancy. One of the efforts needed to increase the knowledge of pregnant women related to nutrition in 100 HPK is through counseling activities for brides-to-be. Methods: Counseling was carried out on 10 couples of brides-to-be who were domiciled in the working area of the Tenggarang Health Center of Bondowoso Regency using flip sheet media. The results of the consultation were evaluated using pre-test and post-test questionnaires. Results: All prospective surrogates received counseling and there was an increase in knowledge about stunting and 1000 HPK in prospective grooms and prospective brides. Conclusion: In general, counseling activities run smoothly and can be one of the efforts to prevent stunting so it is expected to continue to be carried out programmatically.
