Abstract


Emotional strain arises during the postpartum phase. Postpartum blues is one of the common complications that arise from psychological issues in postpartum mothers. Inappropriate handling can cause postpartum depression and even psychosis, damage the mother-infant bond, and, in the worst-case scenario, harm the kid. Postpartum blues, often known as baby blues, affects 26–85% of women in Asian countries after giving birth, whereas 50–70% of postpartum mothers in Indonesia experience the condition. The percentage of women who get the baby blues ranges from 50 to 70%. The baby blues syndrome affects 1 to 2 moms out of every 1000 babies. This study aimed to analyze the intervention of murotal Al-Qur'an therapy and dhikr on the phenomenon of postpartum blues. This type of research is quantitative by design quasi-experiment one group pretest-posttest. 30 respondents participated using a positive sampling technique. Intervention is given once a day for 6 days independently accompanied by researchers. The instrument is the EPDS (Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale) questionnaire and the analysis test used is the Wilcoxon test. Before receiving Al-Qur'an murottal treatment and dhikris, postpartum moms' EPDS score After receiving Al-Qur'an murottal therapy intervention and dhikr in the Semarang City Health Center area, the majority of postpartum mothers (83.3%) experienced a decrease in EPDS scores, indicating that they were in the normal category. Out of all respondents, 100% reported having mild depression or postpartum blues. The findings of the Wilcoxon test showed a significance value of p <0.001, indicating that dhikr and murottal Al-Qur'an therapy had an impact on the postpartum blues phenomena. The average difference between the EPDS scores before and after the intervention is four points. When it came to the postpartum blues phenomena in the Semarang City Health Center region, the intervention of murottal Al-Qur'an therapy and dhikr produced a significant value of p<0.001, indicating that the phenomenon was affected by the intervention.
