P value for interaction with of LTPA trajectory with offspring sex: SGA Model I=0.89, SGA Model II=0.84; LGA Model I=0.008, LGA Model II=0.007

a

Model I is adjusted for maternal age at delivery (years), race (non-Hispanic white/non-Hispanic black/Hispanic/other), parental income category (<$20K/$20-60K/>$60K), nulliparity (Y/N), smoking during pregnancy (Y/N), alcohol use during pregnancy (Y/N), gestational age at delivery (weeks), and offspring sex.

b

Model II is adjusted for all covariates in Model I and pre-pregnancy BMI category (underweight/normal weight/overweight/obese).

c

Number of SGA in this category is too small (<3), so cannot show estimate according to Add Health rules.
