ABSTRACT

Recently, stunting has been hotly discussed by many people, especially mothers. Based on WHO, stunting is a disorder of child growth and development caused by malnutrition, infection, and inadequate stimulation. The number of stunting sufferers in Indonesia continues to decline. But stunting prevention steps really need to be taken, in full the following: Meeting nutritional needs since pregnancy. A relatively effective action taken to prevent stunting in children is to always fulfill nutrition since pregnancy. Based on Anthropometric Characteristics at SDN 1 and 2 Sukamentri (n=323) it was found that as many as 95 students (29.4%) weighed 21-25 kg, 90 students (27.9%) 26-30 kg, 45 students (13.9%) 31-35 kg, 36 students (11.1%) ≤ 20 kg, 35 students (10.8%) ≥ 41kg, and 22 students (6.6%) weighed 36-40 kg. The student body height of SDN 1 and 2 Sukamentri is the most as high as 121-130 cm, namely 112 students (34.7%), then 107 students (33.1%) 131-140 cm, 54 students (16.7%) 141-150 cm, 37 students (11.5%) ≤120 cm, 12 students (3.7%) 151-160 cm, and 1 student (0.3%) ≥ 161 cm. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct health counseling related to stunting as information material for students. With this counseling activity, it is hoped that students will not take the wrong step in making decisions because of the change in mindset that occurs to them. In addition, it can help students in knowing the various impacts of stunting and can fortify themselves and their social environment so as not to fall into various forms of health problems.
