Preterm birth with Low Birth Weight (LBW) could contribute to maternal psychological disorders. The objective of this study was to identify the correlation between mothers’ characteristics and their anxiety of having hospitalized LBWB. This study used descriptive correlation design and involved 90 respondents who met the inclusion criteria. The result indicated that most of the mothers were categorized in non-risk age, unemployed or housewife, and secondary education. Overall, the respondents showed mild anxiety and no significant correlation between mothers’ characteristics and their anxiety (p>0.05). However, there is significant correlation between income and mother’s level of anxiety (p<0.05). It is expected that the result of this study could be the basic data for program development of health promotion in overcoming the anxiety in LBWB’s mothers.
