Abstract

Anxiety is overthinking something that has not happened yet. The anxiety of pregnant women can arise because the long wait for birth is full of uncertainty. Much anxiety occurs in pregnant women who are nearing the time of delivery. This study aims to determine prenatal gentle yoga's effect on the anxiety level in third-trimester pregnant women facing childbirth in PMB, Wringin District. The type of research used includes quasi-experimental research (queasy experiment) with pre-test and post-test with control group design. The sampling technique used was systematic random sampling. The research sample was 60 pregnant women divided into two control groups, 30 pregnant women. The analysis used is bivariate analysis. The results showed a significant effect on the intervention group after gentle prenatal yoga was performed, with a sign of value 0/000. The conclusion of this study shows that there is an effect of prenatal gentle yoga on the level of anxiety in third-trimester pregnant women facing childbirth.
