Background & Aim: The identification of factors affecting the incidence of developmental disorders in children in early life is essential in any society due to the need for further and different follow-up. Unwanted pregnancy is a global problem that has an important role in the development of children. This study aimed to compare and examine the development of 12 months children of wanted and unwanted pregnancies.
Material And Method: This is a cross-sectional comparative study conducted on 300 pairs of mothers and 12 months children( 150 mothers and children with wanted pregnancy and 150 mothers and children with unwanted pregnancy) referred to health centers at Lorestan University of Medical Sciences and Health Services in 2014 using combined sampling (stratified-clustered). Data collection included demographic-midwifery inventory unwanted pregnancies inventory, and ages and atages questionnaire . Data was analyzed using chi-square test, Mann-Whitney, T- test and logistic regression.
Results: developmental delay in the wanted pregnancy group was 4% and in unwanted pregnancy group was 14.6%. there are significant relationships between age, duration of marriage, number of children, mother education and income and unwanted pregnancy (p=0).
Conclusion: It can be said that the effect of unwanted pregnancy on the development of children is largely due to the effect of other variables such as socioeconomic and cultural factors as well as mothers.
