Gestational weight gain and its association with maternal and neonatal outcomes among pregnant women with normal pre-pregnancy body mass index from a Middle Eastern country

Inappropriate gestational weight gain (GWG) is one of the leading health problems during pregnancy. Little is known about the association of GWG with the pregnancy outcomes among Middle Eastern pregnant women. To examine the relationship between GWG and maternal and neonatal outcomes among pregnant...

description Inappropriate gestational weight gain (GWG) is one of the leading health problems during pregnancy. Little is known about the association of GWG with the pregnancy outcomes among Middle Eastern pregnant women. To examine the relationship between GWG and maternal and neonatal outcomes among pregnant women with normal pre-pregnancy BMI. This retrospective cohort study was conducted in Oman among 763 healthy women with normal pre-pregnancy BMI between August 1, 2021, and June 30, 2022. Maternal and neonatal outcomes were retrieved from participants’ medical records using a standardized form. The analytical tools included descriptive statistics and the chi-square test. Descriptive statistics showed 22.6 % and 21.4 % of the study participants gained weight above or below the guidelines, respectively. The findings from the chi-square test showed a significant association between total GWG and the incidence of emergency caesarean section (p

Our study found that inappropriate gestational weight gain (GWG) contributes to several adverse maternal and neonatal outcomes. We recommend that Ministries of Health in Middle East and North Africa area includes GWG as a risk factor for pregnancy-related adverse outcomes. Midwives should closely monitor and manage GWG to ensure optimal pregnancy outcomes. In addition, midwives should encourage mothers to maintain GWG within the recommended range using various strategies such as continuous counselling and motivational health promotion interventions.]]></description><identifier>ISSN: 0266-6138</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 1532-3099</identifier><identifier>DOI: 10.1016/j.midw.2024.103929</identifier><identifier>PMID: 38262216</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>Scotland: Elsevier Ltd</publisher><subject>Gestational ; Neonatal ; Outcomes ; Pregnancy ; Weight gain</subject><ispartof>Midwifery, 2024-03, Vol.130, p.103929-103929, Article 103929</ispartof><rights>2024 Elsevier Ltd</rights><rights>Copyright © 2024 Elsevier Ltd.
