Abstract

Objective
Controversy exists regarding the association between obesity, excessive gestational weight gain [GWG] and preterm delivery. In the present study, we investigate whether pre-pregnancy overweight, obesity and excessive GWG increase the risk for preterm delivery.
Study Design
A retrospective observational cohort study was conducted during the years 2000-2011 on 40,445 deliveries registered in maternal and child health clinics [MCHC]. Pre-pregnancy overweight was defined as maternal pre-pregnancy body mass index [BMI] of 25-30 kg/m2 and obesity as BMI of 30 kg/m2 or more. Excessive GWG was defined according to the current institute of medicine [IOM] recommendation. Preterm delivery was defined as delivery before the 37 week of pregnancy. Multivariable analyses were preformed to control for confounders.
Results
Data regarding pre-pregnancy BMI and excessive GWG was available for 15,300 deliveries. No association was found between pre-pregnancy overweight, obesity and excessive GWG and preterm delivery (Table).
Conclusion
In our population, pre-pregnancy overweight, obesity and excessive gestational weight gain do not pose a risk for preterm delivery.
