“…According to the research, becoming a single mother entails an unfavorable social position that harms their health. Furthermore, LBW is associated with a lack of social support, and lack of social support has been linked to a 3.59-fold increase in LBW [33,34].…”

Poverty could increase a mother's chances of giving birth to a baby with a low birth weight (LBW). Low-income families have trouble supplying food for all family members, including pregnant women. Insufficient food availability at the household level is not limited to food quantity and includes food quality, and the situation in poor households can last for a long time. The study analyzed socioeconomic disparities in rural Indonesia's yield LBW incidence. The study involved mothers (15-49 years) who have given birth in Indonesia's rural areas. The study analyzed 7,786 mothers who received the task as samples. The variables analyzed were LBW, socioeconomic, age, marital, education, employment, and antenatal care. The study used a binary logistic regression test to determine disparities. The study shows the poorest mothers were 1.500 times more likely than the wealthiest mothers to give LBW infants (AOR 1.500; 95% CI 1.499-1.500). Mothers with a more inferior wealth status were 1.531 times more likely than the most prosperous mothers to give birth to LBW infants (AOR 1.531; 95% CI 1.530-1.531). Mothers with a median wealth status were 1.411 times more likely than the richest mothers to give birth to LBW infants (AOR 1.411; 95% CI 1.410-1.412). Wealthier mothers were 1.211 times more likely than the most affluent mothers to give birth to LBW infants (AOR 1.211;). In addition to the socioeconomic status, all control variables, including age group, marital status, education level, employment status, and antenatal care, were also associated with LBW babies incidence. The study concludes that socioeconomic disparities exist in LBW incidence in Indonesia's rural areas.

“…Research on the determinant factors that influence LBW has shown that the upper arm circumference of pregnant women and gestational age are risk factors for LBW [16], [25], [26]. Besides, the study also reveals that the stress conditions of pregnant women [12], sanitation [18], [22], [27], information and education during pregnancy [28], wealth and family income [29], [30], smoke and air pollution [31], [32] are proven to affect the cause of LBW .…”

The case of Low Birth Weight (LBW) in Indonesia is still high. Based on data from the Central Agency on Statistics (BPS), the case of LBW in East Java is still high, with about 20,836 people in 2016 and 14,882 people in 2017. Many factors trigger LBW, especially women's condition and nutritional intake during pregnancy. This study aims to establish a location-based LBW prediction model using a spatial and flexible model. This research was conducted using a Geographically Weighted Regression (GWR) model in East Java and a flexible model with a genetic programming approach. Endogenous variables (Y) portrayed LBW cases in East Java and exogenous variables were the Percentage of Early Marriage (X1), Human Development Index (X2), Number of Midwives (X3), K1 Visit (X4), K4 Visit (X5), Consumption of Fe 30 (X6), and Consumption of Fe 90 (X7). Based on the analysis results using the GWR model, global equation models, and local models 38 models were obtained with R 2 = 82.06%. Meanwhile, based on the results of the analysis with a flexible model with a deep learning approach, the model was obtained with R 2 = 84.8%. From this study, it can be concluded that the GWR model and the flexible model have the same level of accuracy. However, the flexible model can show the nonlinear effect of the variables X1 and X3.

“…Similarly, in a small sample of Australian women during pregnancy and the postpartum period, the perception of social support was negatively associated with symptoms of depression, anxiety, and parenting stress ( Milgrom et al., 2019 ). Furthermore, findings of some studies suggested that women who lacked social support were also more likely to give birth to low-birth-weight infants ( Paredes Mondragón et al., 2019 ). Additionally, in a large Canadian community cohort study, greater social support during pregnancy was a protective factor for age-appropriate development for children in at-risk environments ( McDonald et al., 2016 ).…”

The United States has greater prevalence of mental illness and substance use disorders than other developed countries, and pregnant women are disproportionately affected. The current global COVID-19 pandemic, through the exacerbation of psychological distress, unevenly affects the vulnerable population of pregnant women. Social distancing measures and widespread closures of businesses secondary to COVID-19 are likely to continue for the foreseeable future and to further magnify psychosocial risk factors. We propose the use of a social determinants of health framework to integrate behavioral health considerations into prenatal care and to guide the implementation of universal and comprehensive psychosocial assessment in pregnancy. As the most numerous and well-trusted health care professionals, nurses are ideally positioned to influence program and policy decisions at the community and regional levels and to advocate for the full integration of psychosocial screening and behavioral health into prenatal and postpartum care as core components.
