Completion of antenatal care is influenced by various factors, including education, job status, health insurance ownership, antenatal care services' location, travel time to health facilities, residence area, previous pregnancy history, number of children, desired pregnancy, and pregnancy complications. However, education is crucial in determining a mother's understanding and approach toward using these services. The Indonesian government should enhance public education and awareness initiatives to increase utilization. Healthcare professionals, particularly nurses and midwives, play a vital role in educating pregnant women about the significance of utilizing prenatal care services consistently and facilitating their access to these services efficiently.
