Stunting is a growth disorder caused by chronic nutritional issues, resulting in shorter stature in children compared to their age group. In 2021, Semarang City recorded a stunting prevalence of 21.3%, with Sukorejo Village among the affected areas. By June 2022, there were 14 stunting cases among 124 children in Sukorejo Village, increasing by 10 new cases in March 2023. This study aimed to evaluate differences in pregnant women's knowledge and attitudes toward stunting prevention before and after receiving education via WhatsApp groups. Using a quantitative and qualitative approach with a quasi-experimental one-group pretest-posttest design, the study involved 60 respondents selected through purposive sampling from a population of 97 pregnant women, utilizing questionnaires for data collection. Results showed significant improvements in knowledge (p = 0.000) and attitudes (p = 0.000) among pregnant women following the WhatsApp-based education. The study concluded that this method effectively enhanced the knowledge and attitudes of pregnant women in preventing stunting in Sukorejo Village
