Women who suffer severe complications during their first pregnancy or delivery are less inclined to have more babies, a study published inby researchers at Karolinska Institutet reports. Given the recent steady decline in birth rate in Sweden, the researchers propose monitoring in antenatal care to address the problem.
"We found that the likelihood of having more children was much lower in women who had experienced severe complications during their first pregnancy, delivery or postnatal period," says the study's last author Neda Razaz, associate professor at the same department."Such events can often have a physical and mental impact on women for a long time to come."
"The reasons are hard to speculate on and may result from multiple factors, such as decreased desire for more children, trauma, infertility related to psychiatric medications, or lack of health counselling," says Tsamantioti."Proper support and monitoring by antenatal care staff is therefore essential for women who have suffered serious health problems during pregnancy or delivery.
