This descriptive analytic study has been undertaken to find out the characteristic of mothers that gave birth to babies with congenital anomalies and what maternal factors that affect which type of congenital anomalies that were developed, by interviewing 60 mothers who had given birth to babies with congenital anomalies and were admitted to H. Adam Malik General Hospital and by using their offsprings medical record data from January 2012 to August 2018. The data were then analyzed with IBM SPSS version 22. Women aged 21-30 years old at conception (50%), housewife (60%), multigravida (38.3%), low socioeconomic level (55%), elementary school education level (28.3%), first prenatal visit in the first trimester (38.3%), antenatal frequency ≥ 4 times (45%) , first obstetric ultrasonography at the third trimester of gestational age (31.7%), use of pregnancy vitamin in first trimester (63.3%), no family history of congenital anomalies (96.7%), husband’s age at conception 31-40 years old (46.7%), and smoker husband (68.3%) were the most findings in this study. Congenital anomalies that are commonly found are gastroschisis, hydrocephalus, omphalocele, spinabifida and hirschprung. Male babies (54.7%) have more congenital anomalies in this study. Multinomial logistic regression analysis we found that adjusted to other factors such as mother’s age at conception; use of pregnancy vitamin in first trimester; family income; parity; timing of first antenatal care; and smoker husband, husband’s age at conception has a significant effect to which type of congenital anomalies developed. As the other anomalies as refference group (palatoschisis, labiopalatoschisis, craniopagus, LUTO, TRAP sequence, Collodion Baby, Hygroma Coli), every one year increase the age of the father, incidence of gastrointestinal system disorder, central nervous system disorder, and multiple congenital anomalies will increase with adjusted OR (AOR) and 95% CI: 2.328 (1.010-5.367); 2.389 (1.032-5.532); 2.955 (1.257-6.943) respectively.
