The advice appears to be especially important for Black mothers. The study found that spacing babies closely together is More Likely to result in underside babies for them than for Whites. Prematurity is the major cause of infant deaths in the United states. The research suggests that Black mothers tendency to get pregnant again quickly is one reason their infant mortality rate is twice As High As Whites a if we could encourage women to give themselves nine months Between pregnancies we Are Likely to see a narrowing of the difference in pregnancy outcomes Between Black and White women in the United states a or. James s. Rawlings said. Women need to pause Between pregnancies so they can build up the nutritional reserves necessary for a growing fetus. Rawlings conducted the study with his wife Virginia a nutritionist and or. John a. Read at the Madigan army medical Center in Tacoma Wash. It was published in thursdays Issue of the new England journal of Medicine. Infant mortality has fallen dramatically for both Blacks and Whites in recent decades but the Gap Between the races has remained stubbornly constant experts once attributed this largely to poor pregnancy care for Black women. While this and other effects of poverty May play a role newer evidence suggests the reasons Are More Complex. For instance one recent study found that even the babies of College educated Blacks Are twice As Likely As Whites to die in infancy. Another found that Black mothers Are twice As Likely As women of other races to drink smoke and use drugs during pregnancy and this could help explain at least some of the difference. The latest study is especially noteworthy because it was conducted at an army Hospital. All the mothers receive High Quality prenatal care and Black families have about the same income As whiles. Despite these equal circumstances 7 percent of the Black mothers studied delivered premature babies compared with 3 percent of Whites. Birth spacing explained the difference the researchers said if the Black women had waited nine months Between pregnancies their birth outcomes would have been just As Good As the w Lutes
