METHODS
A total of 4,486 women 20-28 weeks pregnant attending general prenatal care clinics of the national health system in Brazil from 1991 to 1995 were enrolled and
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the effect of maternal obesity on mode of delivery following induction of labour (IOL) for prolonged pregnancy and subsequent intrapartum and neonatal complications.
METHODS
Retrospective (historical) cohort study.
METHODS

OBJECTIVE
Maternal lifestyle factors are potential predictors of pregnancy complications. We examined relations between modifiable factors and delivery complications.
METHODS
Prospective cohort.
METHODS
University hospital antenatal clinic, Oslo, Norway.
METHODS
A cohort of 553 women followed
Obese parturients present obstetric anesthesia providers with multiple challenges, including increased incidence of maternal coexisting disease, labor complications, and potential for difficult initiation and failure of neuraxial labor analgesia. This focused review discusses these challenges, and
OBJECTIVE
to explore the factors that influence breast-feeding practices in obese women who had either stopped breast-feeding or were no longer exclusively breast-feeding 6-10 weeks following the birth of their babies, despite an original intention to do so for 16 weeks or longer. Specifically (i)
BACKGROUND
To investigate the influence of Body Mass Index on the incidence of labor complications in a population of women with a normal pregnancy.
METHODS
From a local database, information on maternal weight and height was extracted concerning 4258 women who had an uncomplicated pregnancy. After
BACKGROUND
Early-term delivery is an important cause of short-term neonatal morbidity and associated high healthcare costs, with possible additional long-term developmental ramifications. As a form of 'iatrogenic' delivery, induction of labour (IOL) is a potentially modifiable contributor to this
BACKGROUND
Maternal obesity and excessive gestational weight gain (GWG) are prevalent in Australia and associated with an increased risk of birth complications, gestational diabetes and caesarean delivery.
OBJECTIVE
To assess the effect of a pilot dietetic intervention in supporting the achievement
Introduction The birth of a large for gestational age (LGA) infant is a significant risk factor for birth complications and maternal morbidity and an even higher risk factor for offspring obesity, metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular disease in later life. Relevant factors affecting the risk
OBJECTIVE
To determine whether maternal prepregnancy overweight or obesity has an independent effect on breastfeeding duration.
METHODS
A prospective birth cohort study of 1803 live-born children and their mothers ascertained through antenatal clinics at the major tertiary obstetric hospital in
BACKGROUND
Super-obesity is associated with significantly elevated rates of obstetric complications, adverse perinatal outcomes and interventions. The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence, risk factors, management and perinatal outcomes of super-obese women giving birth in
OBJECTIVE
Neonates born to overweight or obese women are larger and at higher risk of birth complications. Many maternal obesity-related traits are observationally associated with birth weight, but the causal nature of these associations is uncertain.
OBJECTIVE
To test for genetic evidence of causal
Background: Fetal smoke exposure is a common and key avoidable risk factor for birth complications and seems to influence later risk of overweight. It is unclear whether this increased risk is also present if mothers smoke during the
BACKGROUND
The majority of studies on pregnant women with high body mass index (BMI) have focused on medical complications and birth outcome, rather than these women's encounters with health care providers. The aims were to identify the proportion of pregnant women with high BMIs (≥30); compare
