A polluted environment during pregnancy can harm the development of the fetus and alter its weight at birth. The higher the contamination rate mothers are exposed to, the lower the baby's weight at birth. The more pollution there is in the environment, the greater the probability that babies will be born weighing less than 2,500 grams.
That was the conclusion reached by researchers in a study led by Tracey Woodruff J., Professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology and Reproductive Sciences at the University of California San Francisco, USA, in conjunction with the National Center for Health Statistics, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The team analyzed data collected from more than 3 million births in 14 different countries in Europe, South America, North America, Asia and Australia.
Exposure to pollution during pregnancy too It can have serious consequences for the health of the baby that is forming in the womb from his mother. Pollution affects all of us, but especially children and babies during the second month of gestation. At this stage of pregnancy, the effects of pollution usually affect the development of important systems and organs such as the heart, ears, ankles, wrists, mouth, eyelids, fingers ... that are in formation.
Pollution comes from microscopic particles, often not visible to the eyes, but found in the air we breathe. Future mothers who breathe in high levels of ozone and carbon monoxides during pregnancy will have a higher risk of their babies being born with facial and heart malformations.
Evidently, tobacco also influences environmental pollution. In addition, in the case of nicotine, its effects do not only come through the air that the mother breathes, but it is capable of crossing the placenta and reaching the baby directly.
