ABSTRACT LBW is considered the leading cause of infant mortality, especially in the first month of life. The incidence of LBW in Indonesia has a prevalence of 10.2% and most of the LBW infants who died during the neonatal period. According to the health profile of the East Nusa Tenggara Province, the number of infant mortality cases in NTT Province in 2018 was 1,265 cases, the factors causing infant mortality in this case were dominated by LBW and Asphyxia. Based on data obtained from dr. Ben Mboi Ruteng Hospital, LBW cases in 2019 totaled 640 cases. LBW is one of the risk factors that have a contribution to infant mortality during the neonatal period. Until now, LBW is still a problem that causes morbidity and mortality in newborns. The purpose of this study was to analyze the factors associated with the incidence of low birth weight babies (LBW) in dr.Ben Mboi Ruteng Hospital. This type of research is a quantitative study with a cross sectional research design. The population in the study was 2.480 mothers giving birth and the sample size obtained was 96 respondents with a sampling technique, namely purposive sampling. The results of statistical tests using Chi Square with a significance level of 0,05 indicate that maternal age has a p-value of 0,004 (p<0,05), gestational age has a p-value of 0,004 (p<0,05) and parity has a p-value value 0,704 (p>0,05. The conclusion of this study is that there is a significant relationship between maternal age and gestational age with the incidence of LBW and there is no relationship between parity and the incidence of LBW in dr. Ben Mboi Ruteng Hospital.  Keywords: age, parity, gestational age, LBW

Low birth weight babies are babies born with a weight less than 2500 grams. LBW (low birth weight) affects the high mortality rate in infants and is at risk of experiencing obstacles in growth and development. LBW is generally caused due to lack of nutrition and nutritional needs from mother to fetus while pregnant women aged less than 20 years and more than 35 years have the risk of giving birth to LBW. The purpose of this study is to determine the risk factors that cause LBW based on maternal age and nutritional status. The research method used was observational with a cross sectional study approach. The sampling technique was random sampling at the Regional Haji Makassar General Hospital in the January to July 2015 period with a total sample of 65 people. Analysis using the Chi Square Test. The results showed that there was a relationship between maternal age, nutritional status of LBW with a value (p value = 0.00 <α = 0.05). Maternal age and nutritional status are factors that influence low birth weight where the results of the study indicate that there is a relationship between maternal age and nutritional status on the incidence of low birth weight. To reduce the incidence of low birth weight, it is necessary to increase counseling about the causes of low birth weight babies by health workers, especially midwives to pregnant women to prevent the risk of low birth weight birth.

Introduction: The nutritional status of pregnant women has a significant impact on the fetus's health and development. Low birth weight can be caused by womb growth problems. Research in Nepal shows that babies with low birth weight have a higher risk of becoming stunted. West Sulawesi is the most populous province in Central Indonesia, with a population of 39.7%. In Mamuju District, West Sulawesi, the relationship between stunted babies and maternal nutritional status during pregnancy was investigated. Methods: Cross sectional analytic survey with a retrospective approach. Data processing using the chi square test. The population in this study was 20.039 people. Total sampling was used to collect nutritional status data of children under the age of five in West Sulawesi province from February to June 2020. In this study, 88 people were sampled, all of whom were mothers of stunted children aged 2 to 5 Years old and who had a KIA book during pregnancy. Results: The results of statistical tests showed that the p value of nutritional status with BMI and LILA 0.000 and the p value of HB levels 0.066. There was a link between pregnant women's nutritional status and LILA, but not between HB levels and stunting. Conclusion: The conclusion of this study is that there is a relationship between the nutritional status of pregnant women based on BMI and LILA and the incidence of stunting in Mamuju Regency, West Sulawesi Province.

Introduction: Low Birth weight is one of the most sensitive and reliable predictors of health and also an essential determinant of mortality, morbidity and disability in infancy and childhood. Globally, about one sixth of all newborns are low birth weight (LBW <2500 grams), which is the single most important underlying risk factors for neonatal deaths. It is estimated that 18 million babies are born with Low Birth Weight and half of them are born in south Asia. Over three – quarters of newborns death in Nepal occur in LBW babies. The estimates of prevalence of LBW in Nepal have ranged from 14% in community based studies to 32% in hospital based ones, overall being 27%.Objectives were to study the various socioeconomic and maternal reproductive factors related to low birth weight babies in Central regional part of Nepal.Material and Methods: Cross-sectional and observational study was undertaken from October 2012 to September 2014 comprising of 350 singleton live born baby admitted in NICU of Tertiary Care Teaching Hospital, Chitwan.Results: The common risks factors for LBW were significantly associated with low socio- economic status, maternal age, maternal education, occupation of mother, maternal smoking, maternal alcohol intake, number of ANC visit with significant p-value of <0.05.Conclusion: LBW mostly associated with maternal factors can be addressed directly by improving the socioeconomic factors (maternal age, educational level and economic status) and health status of pregnant women by supplementations, family planning services and female education.J Nepal Paediatr Soc 2016;36(3):277-283
