Abstract

Objectives: This study is an investigation of differences in regulatory problems (RP; crying, sleeping, feeding) expressed by infants born very preterm (VP; <32 weeks gestation) or with very low birth weight (VLBW; <1500 grams) and infants born at full term (FT) during the first 18 months of life. It investigates the prevalence of single and multiple RPs, their persistence and how early in infancy RPs still found at 18 months of age can be predicted. Method: This prospective longitudinal study of 73 VP/VLBW and 105 FT infants utilized a standard interview of mothers to assess regulatory problems among the infants at term, 3, 6, and 18 months of age. Results: Few differences were found between VP/VLBW and FT infants in the first 6 months....
