A baby\u2019s prenatal alcohol exposure carries the risk of potential lifelong problems, including premature birth, delayed infant development, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cdc.gov\/ncbddd\/fasd\/index.html\">fetal alcohol spectrum disorders<\/a> (FASD).<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe findings emphasize how many factors influence alcohol use during pregnancy,\u201d says lead author <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sas.rochester.edu\/psy\/people\/gradstudents\/kautz-carson\/index.html\">Carson Kautz-Turnbull<\/a>, a third-year graduate student in the Rochester <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sas.rochester.edu\/psy\/\">Department of Psychology<\/a> whose interests lie in FASD intervention work and reaching underserved populations, including racial minorities, rural populations, and low-income groups. \u201cThe more we learn about these factors, the more we can reduce stigma around drinking during pregnancy and help in a way that&#8217;s empowering and meaningful,\u201d Kautz-Turnbull says.<\/p>\n<p>The team followed 246 pregnant women at two sites in western Ukraine over time as part of CIFASD, an international consortium of researchers that researchers at the University\u2019s Mt. Hope Family Center are members of, which is funded by the NIH\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.niaaa.nih.gov\/\">National Institute of Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The team found that higher use of alcohol and tobacco by partners as well as pregnant women\u2019s lower relationship satisfaction increased the likelihood of their babies\u2019 prenatal alcohol exposure. Conversely, women who felt supported by their partners reported lower rates of depressive symptoms and were less likely to drink during pregnancy.<\/p>\n<p>All study participants had a partner; most were married. In their first trimesters, the women reported on their relationship satisfaction, including frequency of quarreling, happiness with the relationship, and the ease of talking to their partners, their partners\u2019 substance use, and their socioeconomic status. In the third trimester, the participants were surveyed about their own drinking habits and depressive symptoms. Subsequently, the researchers assessed the infants\u2019 mental and psychomotor development around the age of six months.<\/p>\n<p>According to the team\u2019s analysis, pregnant women\u2019s depressive symptoms and drinking directly correlated with their relationships with their partners and to their partners\u2019 substance use. (The researchers asked about alcohol and tobacco use only.) Positive partner influences resulted in women\u2019s lower alcohol use in late pregnancy and fewer depressive symptoms. The findings applied even when socioeconomic status, which is generally linked to depression and drinking, was taken into account. Higher prenatal alcohol exposure resulted in poorer mental and psychomotor development in the infants, though a mother\u2019s prenatal depression did not affect babies the way drinking did.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s why maternal health and pregnancy interventions are likely to be more effective when partners are included, with benefits for both mothers and babies, the team concludes. Interventions addressing the partners\u2019 substance use may help reduce pregnant women\u2019s substance use, too, while improving their relationship satisfaction, protecting against depression, and boosting infant development.<\/p>\n<p>Rochester FASD expert and study coauthor <a href=\"http:\/\/www.psych.rochester.edu\/MHFC\/about\/faculty\/christie-petrenko\/\">Christie Petrenko<\/a>, a research associate and assistant professor at the University\u2019s\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.psych.rochester.edu\/MHFC\/\">Mt.
