According to Notoadmojo, the older the mother, the more knowledge she has. Mothers in their late teens will have less knowledge and experience because at this age mothers still do not have extensive experience so that it affects mother's knowledge about health, especially about Ante Natal Care (ANC). It is expected for pregnant women to increase the knowledge of pregnant women about ANC so that pregnant women know more about the meaning, benefits and goals of ANC and motivate pregnant women to comply with ANC.]]>
