Night‑shift work during pregnancy increased risk of SGA, while overall work during pregnancy was not linked to preterm birth.
Follow‑up data how night‑shift exposure during pregnancy linked to pregnancy outcomes for night‑shift workers and night owls. The associations highlight which parts of the rota are likely to drive risk, informing practical accommodations. For night‑shift teams and individuals, this ties long‑debated rota features to concrete outcomes, making schedule talk about health, not preference.
