Abstract:
:Unhealthy behaviors and lifestyle choices are contributing to the obesity epidemic and associated morbidities. Among reproductive aged women, obesity adversely affects perinatal outcomes and longer term maternal and child health. Interventions utilizing strategies of behavior change have the potential to improve outcomes, especially during pregnancy. Antenatal interventions to improve adherence to gestational weight gain guidelines are one such example. Although behaviorally-based intervention trials have been associated with modest decreases in gestational weight gain, the effect on short term perinatal outcomes has thus far been minimal. This commentary aims to discuss possible reasons behind the failure to improve perinatal outcomes as well as to encourage future areas of study.
