This study was a cross-sectional on women who gave birth at the obstetrics and gynecology unit at the government-health service in Muna, Southeat Sulawesi. The sample size in this study was 108 people who were selected using a simple random sampling technique. The results of the study showed there was a relationship between knowledge of pregnant women and the incidence of low birth weight with P Value < 0.001 or p < = 0.05.
