Pre-pregnancy overweight or obesity and gestational diabetes as predictors of body composition in offspring twenty years later: evidence from two birth cohort studies

Abstract: Maternal pre-pregnancy overweight and GDM are associated with unhealthy body size and composition in offspring over 20 years later. Effects of maternal pre-pregnancy overweight appear more pronounced.

“…Newborns of mothers with GDM are heavier and have greater skinfold measures and adiposity than offspring of mothers without GDM. Later in life, children of diabetic mothers more frequently develop early overweight or obesity, type 2 diabetes, and metabolic syndrome [7][8][9].…”

“…Obesity and diabetes disproportionately affect minority women, and the intrauterine environment contributing to the epidemics will perpetuate and widen health disparities between racial and ethnic groups (Verbiest, Malin, Drummonds, & Kotelchuck, ).

“…Later in life, children of diabetic mothers more frequently develop early overweight or obesity, type 2 diabetes, and metabolic syndrome. [7][8][9] In pregnant woman with GDM, ultrasound is used to monitor growth as overnutrition is common and influences management. Prenatally, fetal overgrowth is suspected when the ultrasound estimated fetal weight (EFW) is abnormally elevated.…”
