p<0.05 difference between referent and comparison groups.

EGA = estimated gestational age. Child, maternal, and paternal age represents the age at the indicated follow-up. Prenatal depression AUC = depression scores across pregnancy calculated as the area under the curve from the Beck Depression Inventory assessed multiple times throughout pregnancy.
