Document Summary

For the majority of pregnancies, there are steps that parents might take to increase the likelihood that their babies will be carried to full term, have a healthy weight, and have a lower risk of birth defects. Folic acid is essential for the health of the developing fetus. Linked to later conduct disorders of older children. Smoking during pregnancy is a risk factor for wheezing and asthma in adolescents. It is helpful if young women who are planning to become pregnant be made aware of the need for folic acid supplements and the importance of avoiding the use of alcohol or other drugs prior to pregnancy. Increase contact with family members, decrease contact with friends. Fathers in dual-earner families display more coparenting behaviors than fathers in single-earner households: parental attributes. For mothers, higher levels of coparenting behavior are associated with being part of a dual-career family, having a college education, and/or having observed coparenting relationships in their families of origin.
