The World Health Organization states that Coronavirus Disease 2019 (Covid-19) is a global pandemic. As one of the vulnerable groups, pregnant women need to avoid Covid-19 transmission and maintain their health in the pandemic period. The purpose of the study was to look at some of the research together and gain a frame of mind in solving problems about antenatal care in the time of the covid-19 pandemic. Research methods using literature review studies are obtained through the database of international journal providers Proquest and Jurnal Scientific Indonesia through google scholar with keywords according to MESH (Medical Subject Heading) namely "Pandemic Covid-19", "Antenatal Care". As a result of 12 studies, 8 showed negative ratings in which respondents did not make antenatal care visits citing fear of being infected with the virus, felt antenatal care was inadequate and caused great emotional damage to users. 2 of the 8 articles have also implemented online-based health care methods, using smartphone apps specifically designed to be used as a medium for sending health messages so that pregnant women can monitor the health of their pregnancies. As well as reducing direct interaction during the Covid-19 pandemic without compromising pregnancy outcomes.
