The instrument of this study used questionnaire, the data were analyzed using Chi Square test and regression logistic with α≤0,05. The results showed that there was correlation between age and incidence of preeclampsia with p = 0,00 (p ≤ α). Moreover, there was correlation between parity and pre-eclamsia with p = 0,00 (p ≤ α). However, the dominant factor with preeclampsia in this study was gravidity= 0.013, OR = 20.68). Pregnant women with age and Gravidity were more high risk to getting pre-eclamsia, so they should perform ANC regularly so it can be done early and prevent preeclampsia.
