Maternal Adjustment and Infant Outcome in Medically Defined High-Risk Pregnancy.

Developmental Psychology, v38 n1 p93-103 Jan 2002

Explored relation of biological and psychosocial risk factors to infant development among pregnant women who had pregestational diabetes, gestational diabetes, or were nondiabetic. Found that infants of diabetic mothers scored lower on the Bayley Scales at 1 year and revealed fewer positive and more negative behaviors than infants of nondiabetic mothers. Maternal coping and resources differentially predicted infant development. (Author/KB)
