Abstrak
Pemberian air susu ibu secara eksklusif merupakan pilihan terbaik untuk bayi yang baru lahir hingga usia 2 tahun. Masalah yang timbul pada ibu menyusui adalah produksi jumlah ASI yang tidak maksimal. Salah satu penyebab masalah tersebut adalah asupan gizi yang rendah sehingga banyak bayi yang kebutuhan gizinya kurang terpenuhi. Pelaksanaan sosialisasi pengabdian masyarakat ini telah dilakukan selama empat hari di Puskesmas Pantai Cermin. Tujuan kegiatan ini adalah untuk meningkatkan produksi ASI ibu menyusui melalui pemberian bolu kukus daun katuk. Ibu menyusui diberikan 1 porsi bolu kukus daun katuk yang terdiri dari 3 potong yang masing-masing beratnya 15 gram selama empat hari. Pada hari pertama tim pelaksana melakukan edukasi tentang ASI melalui ceramah dan diskusi serta memperkenalkan produk bolu kukus daun katuk dilanjutkan dengan demonstrasi pembuatan bolu kukus daun katuk dan pemberian bolu kukus daun katuk kepada peserta. Pemberian bolu kukus daun katuk dilanjutkan hingga hari ke empat dan lembar observasi tentang frekuensi menyusui dibagikan setiap hari. Berdasarkan sosialisasi ini didapatkan hasil bahwa ibu menyusui mengalami peningkatan frekuensi menyusui dalam 24 jam. Disimpulkan bahwa produk bolu kukus daun katuk efektif meningkatkan produksi ASI.
