Linear regression models for birth weight, head circumference, and birth length outcomes predicted by cannabis exposure during pregnancy

Prolonged use versus previous use of cannabis, but not used during pregnancy
B 95% CI p value
Birth weight
 Cannabis in pregnancy − adjusted −153 −262 to −42 0.01
Birth length
 Cannabis in pregnancy − adjusted −0.3 −1.1 to 0.5 0.47
Head circumference
 Cannabis in pregnancy − adjusted −0.3 −0.7 to 0.0 0.05

Multiple imputation on variables tobacco smoking and use of illicit drugs during pregnancy used. N = 8,652 for birth weight; N = 8,332 for birth length; N = 8,509 for head circumference. Adjusted for a set of confounders: maternal age, education, parity, alcohol use during pregnancy (never, sometimes, and regular/binge), presence of symptoms of anxiety/depression, tobacco smoking in pregnancy (never, sometimes, and daily), use of illicit drugs, use of prescribed medications during pregnancy (opioids and benzodiazepines), work situation, planned pregnancy, and sex.
