Pregnancy and childbirth profoundly impact women's lives, especially for teenage mothers balancing adolescence and motherhood. This quantitative, descriptive-correlational study assessed the well-being of 202 teenage pregnant women in Rinconada, focusing on maternal and child health practices. Data were gathered using a questionnaire and analyzed through percentage, weighted mean, and chi-square tests. The majority of respondents were aged 16-17 years, cohabiting, with normal body mass index, experiencing their first pregnancy, and from families earning less than Php 5,000 monthly, had attained a high school education, and reported no specific ethnic affiliation. Respondents exhibited optimism about their future and that of their child, shaped by their cultural and social environment. They also adhered to key maternal health practices, avoiding smoking, alcohol, and illicit substances during pregnancy. Factors such as physical, psychological, financial, and social support significantly influenced adherence to maternal health practices. Specifically, family and social support enhanced compliance with health recommendations, while financial resources facilitated access to healthcare. Significant correlations were found between age, number of pregnancies, and family income with maternal health practices, while civil status, body mass index, education, and ethnicity were not significantly related. An intervention plan was proposed to address factors influencing maternal health practices among teenage mothers in Rinconada. It emphasizes promoting healthier behaviors, reducing stress, improving healthcare access, and providing resources to ensure safer pregnancies and enhanced maternal well-being.
