The influence of gestational age and smoking habits on the risk of subsequent preterm deliveries

Article Abstract:

Women who have had a premature delivery in the past are more likely to have one in the future. In a study of 243,858 Swedish women, women who had a previous premature delivery were between 2 and 12 times more likely to have another one, depending on how premature their baby was in the previous delivery. Women who smoked were also more likely to have a premature delivery compared to those who did not.
