^aListed in order of standardized regression coefficient, an indication of the magnitude of the effect.

^bEach trimester was analyzed separately but all are presented together for convenience. In cases where more than one trimester was significant, the betas for the other variables were essentially the same across models. If more than one trimester was significant, the values presented are those for the third trimester model.
