In a representative questionnaire investigation covering all of Denmark, 3,152 women provided information about their health during a recent pregnancy. Of these, 1,411 (45%) had been ill or had experienced severe complaints related to the pregnancy and 625 (20%) had been hospitalized during pregnancy. The average duration of hospitalization was two weeks with great variations in the various conditions. Women with multiple pregnancies were hospitalized for an average of six weeks. Increased incidence of hypertension and placental insufficiency were found among women over the age of 35 years whereas preeclampsia was most common among primigravidae. Women who had previously had a spontaneous abortion had an increased frequency of haemorrhage, threatened abortion and threatened premature delivery. Previous infertility was not associated with increased occurrence of complications of pregnancy-related morbidity were observed between women who had work outside the home and women who worked in their homes. Women with work outside the home who reported illness or severe pregnancy-related symptoms had an average period of sick-leave of six weeks for health reasons. The most prolonged periods of sick-leave were in cases of threatened abortion, threatened premature delivery and multiple pregnancies. The right to take leave with pay or maintenance allowance prior to the expected date of delivery is not utilized to any great extent more by women with illness during pregnancy. On the other hand, women with long educations utilized this right to a greater extent than unskilled women, who had, on the other hand increased leave on account of health reasons.
