When this article was originally published, there were several mistakes in the abstract and tables.

In the Results section of the abstract, the first odds ratio mentioned was given as 3.28, 95% CI 1.75–6.15, P < 0.0001. This should have been 2.76, 95% CI 1.59–4.80, P = 0.000.

The third odds ratio mentioned was given as odds ratio 7.02, 95% CI 2.08–23.66, P = 0.002. This should have been 7.06, 95% CI 2.10–23.81, P = 0.002.

In Table 1, the figures in the N (%) column under the heading “Maternal psychopathology” were reversed. It should have been as follows:

Yes: 224 (6.2)

No: 3402 (93.8)

Finally, in Table 3, the figures in the second row of the “Anxiety diagnosis” column, under “Moderate stress”, were originally published as 3.59 (0.89–1.13). This should have been 3.59 (1.47–8.78).

This article has now been fully updated and this corrigendum published.
