Association between mothers ’ fish intake during pregnancy and infants’ sleep duration: a nationwide longitudinal study—The Japan Environment and Children’s Study (JECS)

ConclusionsLow fish intake during pregnancy may increase the risk of infants sleeping less than 11  h at 1 year of age. This relationship may have been mediated by maternal n-3 PUFA intake and infant neurodevelopment, but further evidence from interventional and other studies is needed to determine the appropriate level of fish intake during pregnancy.Trial registrationThe Japan Environment and Children ’s Study,https://upload.umin.ac.jp/cgi-open-bin/ctr_e/ctr_view.cgi?recptno=R000035091 (Registration no.
