Abstract

Background: The attachment between mother and fetus is an important part that affects fetal development. The attachment between the mother and the fetus during pregnancy will affect the health of the mother and fetus during the perinatal period. A healthy mother and fetus will be able to pass the labor and breastfeeding period well so as to improve the health condition of the mother and baby.

Methods: This type of research is analytical descriptive, the research was conducted in July–August 2022 with a sample size of 60 respondents. The sampling technique was purposive sampling.

Result: There is a correlation between age and MFAS score (p = 0.046) with a weak positive correlation level (r = 0.309). There is a correlation between the husband’s support score and the MFAS score (p = 0.001) with a moderate positive correlation level (r = 0.5030). This means that an increase in age and husband’s support score correlates with an increase in the MFAS score.

Analysis: the increase in age and the husband’s support score correlates with the increase in the MFAS score.

Discussion: Social support, especially husband’s support, contributes positively to maternal-fetal attachment (MFA), the higher the support given by the husband to his pregnant wife, the higher the attachment of the pregnant mother to the fetus.
