  1. According to the research of Chiara Nosarti, Ph.D., babies born prematurely appear to have an increased risk for developing mental illness, including schizophrenia, depression and bipolar disorder. Dr. Nosarti led a team from Kingโ€™s College London and Karolinska Institutet, Sweden, in one of the largest investigations to date into the relationship between birth complications and mental health.

  2. When babies are born too early, their normal brain development is interrupted, and they are more likely to have problems later on in their lives. Disrupting brain development results in various types of brain injury depending on how early the baby is born.
