    Objective: To determine the maternal factors associated with fetal macrosomia in parturients attended at the Huaycán Hospital in 2019. Methodology: This was a correlational, cross-sectional, retrospective study. The sample consisted of 147 medical records of postpartum women with macrosomic newborns, analyzed using Pearson's correlation coefficient (r). Results: Maternal age (r=0.17) was associated with adulthood in 67% of cases, pre-pregnancy BMI (r=0.19) with overweight in 42%, educational level (r=0.11) with secondary education, history of macrosomic fetus (r=0.19), maternal parity (r=0.18) with multiparity in 50%, number of prenatal checkups (r=0.07), excessive weight gain (r=0.02), gestational age (r=0.005), mode of delivery (r=0.17), and history of diabetes mellitus (r=0.10) showed significant correlations. Conclusions: The study concluded that the maternal factors analyzed had a low but positive significant correlation with fetal macrosomia. Maternal age (20–34 years), pre-pregnancy BMI (overweight >25 kg/m²), multiparity, and excessive weight gain showed the highest prevalence in fetal macrosomia.
