Late-term pregnancy is defined as a pregnancy that has reached 41 weeks and 6 days or more, which includes the risk of oligohydramnios. Proper management of late-term pregnancy is essential through labor induction to reduce the risks of morbidity and mortality. This study aims to analyze Midwifery care for pregnant women with late-term pregnancy and oligohydramnios. This study utilized a case study methodology with a thorough midwifery care approach for one patient. Data collection involved interviews, observations, physical assessments, and documentation reviews. The data were analyzed following the midwifery process steps: assessment, diagnosis, intervention, implementation, and evaluation. The case study was conducted with Mrs. R, who showed no signs of labor. A diagnosis was made of G3P2OO3 at a gestational age of 41-42 weeks, characterized by late-term pregnancy and intrauterine live fetal oligohydramnios. The intervention involved referring the patient to the hospital for labor induction.
