  1. Note. Multivariable logistic regression models were performed to calculate adjusted ORs. Adjusted ORs for each SES variable were in one separate model adjusting for covariates including maternal age at birth, pre-pregnancy obesity, maternal smoking or social drug use or alcohol consumption, mental health illness in pre-pregnancy or during pregnancy, pre-pregnancy maternal health condition, infant sex and maternal residence in rural area
