  1. Abbreviations: BMI body mass index, CI confidence interval, GWG gestational weight gain, OR odds ratio, SGA small-for-gestational age, LGA large-for-gestational age
  2. Values are odds ratios (95% confidence intervals). Model 1 was adjusted for study centers, age, gestational age at delivery, education, drinking during pregnancy, passive smoking, annual household income, number of parity; Model 2 was additionally adjusted for gestational weight gain (continuous)a or prepregnancy BMI (continuous) b; Preterm birth was not adjusted for gestational age at deliveryc
