Increased ambient air pollutant concentrations during pregnancy have been associated with reduced birth weight, but the etiologically relevant pregnancy time window(s) is/are unclear. In 76,500 singleton births in Monroe County, NY (2005-2016), who were 37-42 gestational weeks at delivery, we used generalized linear models to regress term birth weight against mean gestational month pollutant concentrations, adjusting for mean temperature, and maternal, infant, and medical service use characteristics. Overall, there were no clear patterns of term birth weight change associated with increased concentrations of any pollutant across gestational months. However, among Hispanic women only, increases in all pollutants, except O 3 , in multiple gestational months, were associated with decreased term birth weight. Each 3.25 µg/m 3 increase in PM 2.5 concentration in the 6 th gestational month was associated with a -20.4 g (95% CI = -34.0, -6.8) reduction in term birth weight among Hispanic women, but a 4.1 g (95% CI = -2.5, 10.8) increase among non-Hispanic mothers (p for interaction &lt; 0.001). Although ambient air pollutant concentrations during pregnancy were not associated with reduced term birth weight among women of all ethnicities living in Monroe County, this observed association in Hispanic mothers may be a result of less exposure misclassification and bias (due to closer residential proximity to the monitoring site).
