OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to estimate the impact of interpregnancy weight change from first to second pregnancies in obese women on the risk of large-for-gestational-age (LGA) and small-for-gestational-age (SGA) infants.STUDY DESIGN: A population-based historical cohort analysis of 10,444 obese women in Missouri who delivered their first 2 singleton live infants from 1998-2005. Interpregnancy weight change was calculated as the difference between prepregnancy body mass index (BMI) of the first and second pregnancies. LGA and SGA births were compared among 3 interpregnancy weight change groups: (1) weight loss (>= 2 BMI units), (2) weight gain (>= 2 BMI units), and (3) reference group (BMI maintained within 2 units). Adjusted odds ratios (aOR) were calculated for LGA and SGA births with the use of multiple logistic regression. A dose-response relationship was assessed with a linear-by-linear chi(2) test.RESULTS: Compared with the reference group, interpregnancy weight loss was associated with lower risk of an LGA infant (aOR, 0.61; 95% confidence interval, 0.52-0.73), whereas interpregnancy weight gain was associated with increased risk of an LGA infant (aOR, 1.37; 95% confidence interval, 1.21-1.54). Interpregnancy BMI change was not related to SGA infant risk, except for weight loss of >8 BMI units. A significant dose-response relationship was observed for LGA infant risk (P < .001), but not SGA infant risk (P = .840).CONCLUSION: Mild-to-moderate interpregnancy weight loss in obese women reduced the risk of subsequent birth of LGA infants without increasing the risk of SGA infants. The interpregnancy interval may be a crucial period for targeting weight loss in obese women.
