Research Abstract

Aim : To determine effect of psychosocial stress and lifestyles on low birthweight (LBW)in full term period. Method : A prospective study was carried out in the Kumamoto city in Japan between December 2010 and September 2011.A total of 148 pregnant mothers were recruited at≦8 weeks of gestational age and followed up until partus. Those mothers were divided into normal birthweight infants (n=123) and LBW infants (n=25) defined as a birthweight of less than 2500g. Trimester-specific exposure statuses along with potential confounding factors were gathered at first, second and third trimester. Psychosocial stress and lifestyles were assessed using the Subjective Well-Being Inventory and the lifestyles for mothers. The average scores were compared to normal-weight infant mothers and LBW infant mothers. Results : Psychosocial stress, lifestyles and weight control of LBW mothers in full term period were not different from normal birthweight infants mothers.
