Abstract:
BACKGROUND:To compare pregnancy complications and birth outcomes for women experiencing nausea and vomiting in pregnancy, or nausea only, with symptom-free women. METHODS:Pregnancies from the Norwegian Mother and Child Cohort Study (n = 51 675), a population-based prospective cohort study, were examined. Data on nausea and/or vomiting during gestation and birth outcomes were collected from three questionnaires answered between gestation weeks 15 and 30, and linked with data from the Medical Birth Registry of Norway. Chi-squared tests, one way analysis of variance, multiple linear and logistic regression analyses were used. RESULTS:Women with nausea and vomiting (NVP) totalled 17 070 (33%), while 20 371 (39%) experienced nausea only (NP), and 14 234 (28%) were symptom-free (SF). When compared to SF women, NVP and NP women had significantly increased odds for pelvic girdle pain (adjusted odds ratio, aOR, 2.26, 95% confidence interval, 95% CI, 2.09-2.43, and aOR 1.90, 95% CI, 1.76-2.05, respectively) and proteinuria (aOR 1.50, 95% CI 1.38-1.63, and 1.20, 95% CI 1.10-1.31, respectively). Women with NVP also had significantly increased odds for high blood pressure (aOR 1.40, 95% CI 1.17-1.67) and preeclampsia (aOR 1.13, 95% CI 1.01-1.27). Conversely, the NVP and NP groups had significantly reduced odds for unfavourable birth outcomes such as low birth weight infants (aOR 0.72, 95% CI 0.60-0.88, and aOR 0.73, 95 % CI 0.60-0.88, respectively) and small for gestational age infants (aOR 0.78, 95% CI 0.73-0.84, and aOR 0.87, 95% CI 0.81-0.93, respectively). CONCLUSIONS:We found that women with NVP and NP are more likely to develop pregnancy complications, yet they display mostly favourable delivery and birth outcomes.
