ABSTRACT
Data from 245 children of low birth weight on estates in Kalutara and Nuwara Eliya are analysed in relation to age, parity, and work load of the mother during pregnancy. A multivariate analysis shows that the last birth interval and the number of visits to the clinic are important variables besides variables like duration of pregnancy, poor weight gain and previous abortions.
