Model 1: age at enrollment (18–29, 30–34, ≥35 years), race/ethnicity (white, Black, Asian, Hispanic, other), age at menarche (<12, 12–14, 15 years)

Model 2: model 1 + pre-pregnancy BMI (continuous) and pregnancy smoking status (former, smoker during pregnancy, never smoker)

DBP diastolic blood pressure, SBP systolic blood pressure

aThe sample may not add 2201 in some outcomes due to missing outcome data. Women without history of infertility are the reference group

bMean (SD) birthweight-for-gestational age and sex z-scores in tertile 1: −0.86 (0.48); tertile 2, 0.17 (0.24); tertile 3, 1.25 (0.50)

cPregnancy loss includes stillbirth (n = 9) and miscarriage (n = 163)
