In addition to these, the lack of prenatal assistance (PR= 1.41; IC95%=1.05-1.91), started prenatal with three or more months (PR= 1.25; IC95%=1.002-1.56) and alcohol consumption risk in gestation (PR= 1.55; IC95% =1.26-1.91) were identified how associated factors in the logistic regression analysis.
