We investigate the medium-term health effects of prenatal exposure to moderate air pollution matching satellite PM10 concentration estimates with longitudinal data on hospitalisations and filled prescriptions for the universe of live-births in a large Italian region. We employ exogenous variation in PM10 in a multiple fixed-effects model to show that prenatal exposure to pollution leads to worse birth outcomes and to more hospitalisations and filled prescriptions in the first ten years of life, especially at the bottom health quantiles. Women do not leave their residence to avoid exposure to air pollution. We use these estimates to quantify the monetary cost of prenatal exposure to air pollution.
