<![CDATA[Landfill-related pollution may degrade environmental quality and pose health risks, particularly among vulnerable populations such as pregnant women. This study aimed to analyze water quality and describe the health profile of pregnant women in the Tamangapa Community Health Center area according to the proximity of their homes to the landfill. This quantitative descriptive study included 13 pregnant women in their second and third trimesters who met the study criteria. Water quality data were obtained through field measurements, while maternal health and antenatal care data were obtained from measurements and medical records. Data were analyzed using univariate descriptive analysis. The results showed that 76.9% of water samples had elevated temperature, 38.5% were acidic, 30.8% were turbid, and 84.6% had high specific gravity. A total of 76.9% of respondents lived within the predefined close-distance category from the landfill. Based on mid-upper arm circumference, 30.8% of respondents were at risk of chronic energy deficiency. Most respondents had blood pressure within the normal range (84.6%), while mild anemia was found in 53.8% and moderate anemia in 15.4%. The average achievement of the assessed 10T antenatal care components was 85.4%, with laboratory examinations having the lowest achievement (69.2%). The findings indicate changes in several water-quality parameters and the presence of maternal health problems among the respondents. However, due to the descriptive design and limited sample size, this study cannot establish a causal relationship between water quality, residential distance, and maternal health outcomes.]]>
