This study aimed to determine the quality of life of postpartum mothers with the method of normal childbirth and sectio caesaria childbirth. The research applied a descriptive quantitative cross-sectional approach with purposive sampling techniques on 54 respondents of postpartum mothers in the Puskesmas Kartasura area. The research instrument was a postpartum quality of life questionnaire assessing four health subsystems: child care, physical function, psychological function, and social support. The results of this study on the quality of life of puerperal mothers with 54 respondents of puerperal mothers with a balanced number of respondents with normal childbirth and sectio caesarea childbirth by focusing on several sociodemographic and clinical characteristics of puerperal mothers can affect their quality of life and evaluated from the differences of both groups. The quality of life of postpartum mothers with normal childbirth and sectio caesarea childbirth did not have a significant difference. However, in terms of four subsystems of child care, physical function, psychological function, and social support, there was a significant difference with (p = 0.041) in the social support subsystem for sectio caesarea children. In addition, social support was more required for postpartum mothers with normal childbirth.
