Stunting in children often stems from maternal health conditions during pregnancy. This study aims to develop an intelligent rule-based IF–THEN system using the Certainty Factor method as a decision-support tool for the early detection of stunting risk factors. The detection is performed indirectly by diagnosing maternal health conditions during pregnancy. The knowledge base was constructed through interviews with obstetricians and nutritionists, encompassing 20 symptoms categorized into three primary conditions namely Chronic Energy Deficiency (CED), anemia, and preeclampsia. A total of 119 pregnant women from 11 villages in Muara Satu District participated as respondents. Implementation results revealed that among the respondents, 20 were identified with CED, 96 had anemia, and 3 exhibited signs of preeclampsia. Based on Certainty Factor (CF) calculations, the confidence distribution for CED included 2 respondents with CF <50%, 5 respondents within the 50–80% range, and 13 respondents with CF >80%. For anemia, 1 respondent had a CF value <50%, 4 fell within the 50–80% range, and 91 respondents had CF values above 80%. Meanwhile, for preeclampsia, all respondents exceeded the 50% CF threshold, with 1 respondent in the 50–80% range and 2 respondents >80%. In addition to diagnosis, the system provides tailored meal recommendations (breakfast, lunch, and dinner) based on the identified health conditions. Expert validation indicated a 90% agreement rate. However, results still require confirmation through clinical examinations and consultations to ensure medical accuracy.
