If you are born prematurely, chances are that bad luck will be your love and bond.
NEW YORK (Reuters Health) – Adults who were children who were underweight or came to life prematurely have bad luck in love, according to new research.
Specifically, these people may be less likely to engage in romantic relationships, or even become parents, compared to other adults, who had a perfect birth and were born on time, the study said.
Those who were born with a low weight would not have sexual relations by 57%, while they would not have romantic relationships by 28%, while there is a possibility that they will not become parents by 23%.
Marina Mendonk, lead author and researcher at the University of Warwick in the UK, says:
"What we have learned from previous studies is that children born prematurely are usually shy and introverted, low in risk and seeking fun and entertainment."
"These characteristics can make it difficult for people born prematurely to have social relationships in adulthood, such as finding a partner, but when they have friends or a partner, their relationships grow and develop at a higher quality than those It has adults born on time. "
The normal pregnancy period usually lasts about 40 weeks, but for those born before this period (premature), they suffer from breathing difficulties as well as digestion of food, as well as impaired vision, hearing, cognitive skills, and social and behavioral problems.
The authors examined data from 21 previously published studies that compared adults' social outcomes for these premature infants with ideal-birth counterparts.
Preterm infants who arrived before birth in just 28 weeks had no romantic partners 67%, and 69% less likely to become parents in adulthood compared to mature infants.
Preterm infants born from 28 to 31 weeks were 33% less likely to have romantic partners and 21% less likely to become parents than mature infants.
In contrast, children born from 32 to 36 weeks, were only 21% less likely to have romantic relationships, or become parents compared to mature infants.
In her study, Marina Mendonca advises that parents, professionals and teachers have a vital role to play in achieving social development and social integration for premature babies.
"Because preterm infants tend to be more shy and introverted, their support in making friends and integrating into peer groups may help them in the future find romantic partners, have sexual relationships, and become parents, which will bring well-being in their lives," she explained. ".
