Results: There was a level of participation in murottal group respondents before and after the intervention was given, namely p = 0,000 (p <0.05), whereas in control group respondents who were not given murottal, there was no change in the value of p = 0.157 (α> 0, 05). Likewise, the difference in cortisol levels between the murottal group and the control group and the time of delivery after murottal showed an influence on both groups with a value of p = 0.001 (p <0.05).
