The fetus of a man develops in difficult conditions of mutual relations, both with an organism of mother, and with environment, and consequently protection and strengthening of health of children should be carried out taking into account health of mother, the way of life, place of living, course of pregnancy and delivery. The research goal is to reveal the factors which are predictors of physical development of newborn children and drawing up of prognostic models of anthropometric indicators at birth. Materials and methods: Survey of 220 newborns born in time and their mothers has been conducted. The anthropometry has included measurement of body weight, length, head and breast circles in children at birth. Results: The analysis of somatic, infectious, obstetric and gynecologic incidence of mothers of studied children, and also the course of pregnancy and delivery has been carried out. Conclusion: According to the data physical development of newborn children has been influenced by a number of factors. During the research work the prognostic models have been determined allowing to define the factors influencing physical intrauterine development of a child.
