When the children reached five years of age, it is reported that five per cent had birth defects, syndromes or have had serious medical problems.

In addition, the parents of a third of all five year olds reported either having been concerned about the child's development at some point or that the child had been diagnosed with a developmental disability by a healthcare professional.
