Background Health varies in residential areas of different socioeconomic status in the capital of Norway. This study compares risks of pregnancy complications in Oslo according to prevalence of overweight and areas of residency. Methods. Prospective cohort study of 3,677 pregnancies. Pregnancy outcomes were retrieved from medical records after delivery. Statistics were performed by logistic regression analyses. Results. Pregnant women from areas of lower socioeconomic status (Oslo East) had higher prevalence of overweight than women from areas of higher status (Oslo West). Dose-response relationships were found between body mass index and increased risk of pregnancy complications (pre-eclampsia, gestational hypertension, gestational diabetes mellitus, macrosomia, cesarean deliveries, acute cesarean deliveries, transfer of the newborn to neonatal intensive care unit). Comparing Oslo East with Oslo West the relative risks of pregnancy complications were 1.8 for pre-eclampsia, 1.6 for gestational diabetes, 1.4 for acute cesarean deliveries, 1.6 for low birth weight (
