Pregnant women have the most anxiety during the COVID-19 pandemic because they are vulnerable and at high risk. Excessive anxiety raises stress hormone levels in the body, which inhibits cervical dilatation and causes labor to take longer. Long delivery is one of the causes of Indonesia's high maternal mortality rate. The purpose of this study is to identify the factors that influence third-trimester pregnant women's worry about childbirth during the COVID-19 pandemic at the Kasihan I Community Health Center in 2022. The research design used was Cross-Sectional with an analytical survey method. Sampling was done by purposive sampling technique where the sample amounted to 74 respondents. Data were analyzed using univariate, bivariate, and multivariate logistic regression. The findings revealed a link between the perceived risk of COVID-19 and the anxiety of pregnant women in their third trimester about giving birth at the Kasihan I Community Health Center in 2022. The study's result was the varying perception of COVID-19 risk and the anxiety of pregnant women in their third trimester.
