Offspring of obese mothers have poorer cardio-metabolic status
At birth, higher body fat, reduced energy expenditure, and more atherogenic lipid profiles
In childhood, higher blood pressure, risk for metabolic syndrome - even after adjustment for attained BMI
In adulthood, increased risk of death from coronary heart disease
Oken, Ob Gyn Clinics of N. America, 2009 Jun;36(2):361-77.
Gestational weight gain
Gestational weight gain
• Infant birth weight increases 16-23g per 1kg increase in maternal weight gain
– Greater risk for macrosomia, LGA
– Lower risk for low birth weight, SGA
Viswanathan M, et al. Outcomes of maternal weight gain. 2008. AHRQ Evidence Report.http://www.ahrq.gov/downloads/pub/evidence/pdf/admaternal/admaternal.pdf

A vicious cycle?
Catalano PM. JCE&M 2003, 88(8):3505-3506.)
What is the overall impact?
Summary – maternal obesity and offspring outcomes
• Maternal obesity and GWG– Increasing in prevalence– Excesses of each are associated with
increased risks for the child during pregnancy and at birth
– Associated with child weight• Probably not just genes • Can we reverse the cycle?• When/how to intervene?
Clinician advice matters

Childhood
• Beware of ‘catch up growth’
• Promote healthy postnatal and child behaviors– Breastfeeding– Less TV, fast food, sugar sweetened
beverages– More physical activity
• Engage mothers & families
First Steps for Mommy and Me
First Steps for Mommy & MeStudy Aims
• Develop and test feasibility of an intervention to promote healthy eating and physical activity behaviors among mother-infant pairs in the first 6 months of life
Breastfeeding Promotion
Preliminary Results – Feeding and Media Exposure
• At 6-months of age, compared to usual care participants:
– fewer intervention participants had been introduced to solid foods (57% v. 82%; p=0.04)
– intervention infants viewed less screen media (median 0.5 v. 1.0 h/d; p= .07)
– no differences in breastfeeding duration
Preliminary Results – Sleep
• At 6-months of age, compared to usual care participants, intervention participants:
– Had fewer nighttime awakenings (median 1.0 v. 2.0 times per night; p=.05)
– Had longer duration of nighttime sleep (median increase 24 minutes v. 10 minutes; p=.03)
– Intervention mothers reduced time spent putting their infants to sleep at night (median reduction 19.0 v. 0 min; p=.03)
