Table 1.

Mean motor development scores* corresponding with cannabis exposure during gestation and lactation [23].

Motor Development PDI
Days of infant Cannabis exposure Mean

Trimester one
 0 105 (n = 84)
 1 to 44 99 (n = 36)
 45 to 90 93 (n = 16)

Trimester two
 0 102 (n = 98)
 1 to 44 104 (n = 25)
 45 to 90 94 (n = 13)

Trimester three
 0 101 (n = 94)
 1 to 44 107 (n = 28)
 45 to 90 94 (n = 14)

Lactation month one
 0 102 (n = 81)
 1 to 44 106 (n = 38)
 45 to 90 90 (n = 17)

Lactation month three
 0 102 (n = 84)
 1 to 44 103 (n = 28)
 45 to 90 97 (n = 13)

*Motor developmental scores (Psychomotor Development Index, PDI) were from Bayley Scales of Infant Development. During the first trimester, PDI decreased with increasing cannabis exposure (test for linear trend, P = .005). During the first lactation month, mean PDI for the higher exposure group was lower than the PDI for the no or low exposure groups (one-way ANOVA P = .008).
