Highlights • Prenatal blood mercury was measured in >2000 women linked their offspring’s development at 4 time points.• Adjusted associations indicated that the higher the level of blood mercury the more advanced the child’s development.• Adjustment of the analyses for blood selenium did not alter the results.• Separate analyses of women who consumed or did not consume fish produced similar results.• There was no indication that child development is harmed by the levels of mercury we studied (up to the EPA’s RFD).
