“…Only Hill et al did not find any differences in GWG between primiparous and multiparous women [ 63 ]. In several papers, there were no significant associations reported between age and GWG [ 64 – 66 ], which is in agreement with the results of our study. In other studies, it is emphasized that a lower GWG is present in older women [ 1 , 36 , 67 ].…”

BackgroundThe aim of this study was to describe the dietary patterns in pregnant women and determine the association between diet factors, pre-pregnancy body mass index, socio-demographic characteristics and gestational weight gain.MethodsThe analysis was conducted on a group of 458 women. Cut-off values of gestational weight gain adequacy were based on recommendations published by the US Institute of Medicine and were body mass index-specific. Logistic regression analysis was used to assess the risk of the occurrence of inadequate or excessive gestational weight gain. Dietary patterns were identified by factor analysis.ResultsThree dietary patterns characteristic of pregnant women in Poland were identified: ‘unhealthy’, ‘varied’ and ‘prudent’. The factor associated with increased risk of inadequate gestational weight gain was being underweight pre-pregnancy (OR = 2.61; p = 0.018). The factor associated with increased risk of excessive weight gain were being overweight or obese pre-pregnancy (OR = 7.00; p = 0.031) and quitting smoking (OR = 7.32; p = 0.019). The risk of excessive weight gain was decreased by being underweight pre-pregnancy (OR = 0.20; p = 0.041), being in the third or subsequent pregnancy compared to being in the first (OR = 0.37; p = 0.018), and having a high adherence to a prudent dietary pattern (OR = 0.47; p = 0.033).ConclusionsWomen who were overweight or obese pre-pregnancy and those who quit smoking at the beginning of pregnancy should be provided with dietary guidance to prevent excessive gestational weight gain.Electronic supplementary materialThe online version of this article (10.1186/s12884-018-2112-7) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.

Background: Weight gain in pregnancy remains a matter of great concern for women and health care providers. Adherence to a balanced diet throughout pregnancy, influences maternal body weight as well as short- and long-term health of mother and child. Objective of this study was to study antenatal maternal and social factors affecting maternal weight gain among Nulliparous women.Methods: study was carried out in antenatal clinics of tertiary care hospital and a suburban health center with sample size 197 and 97 respectively. Maternal weight was measured at the first antenatal clinic visit and at delivery. Statistical analysis was done with SPSS version 20. Statistical tests used were mean, percentages and chi square.Results: The antenatal determinants of maternal weight gain were: being underweight at the booking visit, maternal complications during pregnancy, passive cigarette smoking during third trimester, low educational level and low per capita income, controlling for the effect of gestational age.Conclusions: maternal educational level, per capital income, passive smoking, caloric and protein deficiency, early pregnancy body mass index determines the weight gain during pregnancy.

Background: Birthweight has been declining consistently for >30 years in Japan. This rapid rise in low birthweight in infants is the worst among the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development countries.Objective: To contribute to the literature and provide new information to clarify the risk factors associated with birthweight decline in Japan.Methods: We used population-based birth certificate data from vital statistics records with prior permission and retrieved 40,968,266 birth certificates of neonates born between 1980 and 2004 to analyze time trends using linear regression analysis for examining whether the decline in birthweight could be explained by obstetrical variables such as gestational age and multiple gestations.Results: From 1980 to 2004, we observed a decline in mean birthweight with a yearly effect of -8.07 g, which became steeper after 1985, persisted until 1999, and plateaued thereafter. After adjusting for gestational age, neonatal gender, birth order, multiple gestations, and fathers’ age, the yearly effect between 1980 and 2004 reduced to -5.13 g. Conclusion: Recent decreases in birthweight among Japanese neonates were not explained fully by trends in gestational age, neonatal gender, birth order, multiple gestations, and fathers’ age. Thus, additional factors such as pre-pregnancy maternal body mass index and maternal diet should be considered.
