An increased risk of high-risk pregnancy means that more and more pregnant women
are at risk of getting a bad pregnancy outcome. This condition is exemplified that the use of
alcohol during pregnancy is associated with miscarriage (spontaneous abortion), mental
retardation, low birth weight (LBW) and fetal alcohol syndrome. Sexually transmitted
diseases (STDs) during pregnancy of an increasing incidence of AIDS are also linked to
neonatal defects and diseases.
This research uses quantitative research with cross sectional research design that is a
study to study correlation between independent variable and dependent variable by
approach, observation or data collection at one time. Based on the result of research of
pregnant mother with knowledge of less good amounted to 44 respondents (86,3%) there was
high risk pregnancy incidence, and mother with bad knowledge but did not experience high
risk pregnancy incidence amounted to 7 respondents (13,7%). While mothers with good
knowledge have experienced high risk pregnancy incidence amounted to 13 respondents
(13.5%) and well-informed mothers did not experience high risk pregnancy incidence
amounted to 27 respondents (67.5%). Based on the result of research of pregnant mother
with bad attitude amounted to 53 respondents (70,7%) there was high risk pregnancy
incidence, and mother with bad attitude but did not experience high risk pregnancy incidence
