    The Detroit Maternity and Infant Care Project (DMICP) is funded under Title V of the Social Security Act. Records of 198 pregnant women and their infants seen by a project nutritionist in fiscal 1971-72 were studied. The women were predominantly young (below twenty years of age), black, and not enrolled in school. Most were pregnant for the first time. About a third were overweight. Mean scores on the APGAR scale for the infants at birth were high (7 to 10). More than half of these young mothers brought their infants to the project center for check-ups six to ten times during the first year.

The presence of oral microbes such as Streptococcus and Fusobacterium in amniotic fluid suggests that microbial exposure may occur in utero, potentially through translocation from the maternal oral or gastrointestinal tract. This early colonization primes the neonatal immune system and sets the stage for subsequent microbial succession. Maternal health,...
