  2. aLogisticregression models entering mothers’ pseudo-ID as cluster variable.
  3. bModel 1 includes Cohort Norway baseline age and time to delivery, and parity risk (nulliparous, prior preterm among parous, and parous without prior preterm delivery).
  4. cModel 2 includes model 1 covariates, and height (cm), body mass index (kg/m2) status (underweight: < 18.5; normal/overweight: 18.5–29.9, and obese), daily cigarette smoking (yes vs. no), educational level (primary, high school/vocational school, any college/university).
  5. dModel 3 includes model 2 covariates and simultaneously light and vigorous leisure-time physical activity.
