Maternal Characteristics that Impact Postpartum Weight Retention: Results from the 2016 Los Angeles Mommy and Baby (LAMB) Follow-Up Study.

Abstract:

OBJECTIVE:To identify maternal characteristics associated with 24-month postpartum weight retention. METHODS:Data were collected from the 2016 Los Angeles Mommy and Baby (LAMB) Follow-Up Survey, a population-based prospective cohort study that assesses maternal and infant health in Los Angeles County. In 2014, LAMB initially surveyed 6035 women 6 months following a live birth. The 2016 LAMB Follow-Up reevaluated this same cohort after the index child's second birthday. 2679 women completed 2016 LAMB Follow-Up (52% adjusted response rate). The final sample size was 1524 after excluding subjects with subsequent pregnancies after the index child and missing information for postpartum weight. Eight predictors were included in this analysis: gestational weight gain, pre-pregnancy BMI, exercise, depressed mood since having child, age, race, education, and job loss during pregnancy. Chi-square tests and logistic regression analyses were performed using SAS 9.3. RESULTS:Two years after delivery, women with postpartum weight retention weighed on average of 15.3 lb. more than before the index pregnancy. Women were more likely to retain postpartum weight when they exceeded gestational weight gain guidelines (AOR = 2.03, 95% CI = 1.40-2.93), did not exercise (AOR = 3.32, CI = 1.85-5.98), were between ages 20-29 (AOR = 1.54, CI = 1.01-2.36), were Hispanic (AOR = 1.51, CI = 1.02-2.24), completed high school only (AOR = 1.77, CI = 1.15-2.73), or lost a job during pregnancy (AOR = 2.62, CI = 1.39-4.93). CONCLUSIONS:Modifiable risk factors and sociodemographic characteristics can impact maternal weight retention 24 months after pregnancy. Understanding postpartum weight retention is essential for guiding future public health research, programming, and policy. Tailoring appropriate public health interventions may help women sustain healthy weight during their reproductive years and beyond.
