母亲的教育水平越低，她生下低体重婴儿（低于2.5公斤）的风险就越高。没有学历的妇女的风险比有高中文凭的妇女高50%。如果考虑到家庭收入和其他因素，如出生顺序、母亲年龄和父母身高，教育水平的差异略有缩小，但它们并没有消失。怀孕期间吸烟和饮酒似乎起了一定作用，部分解释了受教育程度最低的母亲所生婴儿体重偏低的比例较高的原因。在法国和英国，社会经济地位导致的低出生体重风险的变化相似。
The lower a mother’s educational level, the higher the risk that she will have a low birthweight baby (below 2.5kg). The risk is 50% higher for women with no qualifications than for women with a highschool diploma. Differences by educational level narrow slightly when household income and other factors such as birth order, mother’s age and parents’ height are taken into account, but they do not disappear. Smoking and alcohol consumption during pregnancy appear to play a role, partially explaining the higher proportion of low birthweight babies born to the least educated mothers. The variations in the risk of low birthweight by socioeconomic status are similar in France and the United Kingdom.
