abstract = {High-risk pregnancies elevate maternal stress, impacting offspring neurodevelopment and behavior. This study, involving 112 participants,
aimed to compare perceived stress, neurodevelopment, and behavior in high-risk and low-risk pregnancies. Two groups, high-risk and lowrisk,
were assessed during pregnancy for stress using hair cortisol and psychological analysis. At 24 months post-birth, their children’s
neurodevelopment and behavior were evaluated. Results revealed higher perceived stress and pregnancy-related concerns in high-risk
pregnancies, contrasting with low-risk pregnancies. Offspring from high-risk pregnancies displayed elevated internalizing behavior scores,
while low-risk pregnancies showed higher externalizing behavior scores. Additionally, women in low-risk pregnancies exhibited increased
cortisol concentrations 24 months post-delivery. These findings underscore the necessity for early stress detection and prevention programs
during pregnancy, particularly in high-risk cases, to enhance maternal and infant health.},
