Hubungan Status Pekerjaan Ibu dengan Berat Lahir Bayi di RSUP Dr. M. Djamil Padang
Abstrak: According to 2002-2003
Indonesia Demography Health Survey
(IDHS), the percentage
distribution of women based on job
status in the
past 12 months in West
Sumatera showed that 57,5%
of woman was working, 2,4% of woman was
not working and 40,1% of the
women did not work
at all. From
the data, it is
shown that the
percentage of woman who working
was bigger than woman who was not working. Based on various
researches, a job
that will be done
by a woman especially while pregnant,
had influence toward
the weight of the
infant who will be delivered.
Objective: This research was
aimed to
find out the relationship of job status and job
type of mother with infant’s
birth weight in RSUP Dr. M. Djamil Padang.
Method: This was an
observational research that
used Prospective Cohort design.
The data was collected in
antenatal polyclinic of RSUP Dr.M.
Djamil Padang. The population was all pregnant women who came
to check their pregnancies
to antenatal polyclinic
and they were clustered
based on job
status and job
type. Every pregnant woman was
observed and their
pregnancy development that was
started in the week
32 of pregnancy until delivery
was continually monitored. The sample
was taken with non probability sampling and
consecutive sampling. The
independent variables were
job status and job
type and the
dependent variable was infant’s birth weight. The confounding
variable were education, social
economy status, women’s age, parity,
gestation age, women’s height,
weight gain, nutrition
intake, children sex
and mother’s disease during pregnancy.
Result: The dif ference of
birth weight in a mother works with heavy
physical activity was
196.44 gram (p=0.000) which
was lower than mother who did
not work with heavy physical
activity, and the difference of infant’s
birth weight in the
group of mother who were ill
during pregnancy with those who were not ill in
their pregnancy period was 243.92
gram (p=0.001). Male infant who was born had
difference on the
average of birth weight that was
97.24 gram (p=0.015) which was heavier
than female infant. The
increasing gestation age every
one week will increase infant’s
birth weight 45.34 gram (p=0.021) and
increasing of mother’s weight
will increase infant’s birth weight with 47.12 gram
(p=0.000). The increasing nutrition
intake every one kilocalories will increase
infant’s birth weight 0.56 gram
(p=0.000). R2 was 0.2729 which mean
that model 2 as the
result of double linear regression
analysis could explain the
relationship and predicted infant’s birth weight with 27.29%.
Conclusion: There was a
relationship between mother’s
job status (working or
not working) and mother’s job type
(heavy physical activity and
low physical activity) with infant’s
birth weight, in which infant’s
birth weight in working mother with
heavy physical activity was
lower than infant
with mothers who did not work with heavy physical
activity.
