Description
Summary:To determine risk factors for early postpartum weight retention (PPWR) and glucose intolerance (GI) in women with gestational diabetes (GDM). Prospective, multicenter (n=8) cohort study in 1201 women with a recent history of GDM. Pregnancy and postpartum characteristics, and data from self-administered questionnaires were collected at the 6-16 weeks postpartum 75g OGTT. Of all participants, 38.6% (463) had moderate (>0 and ≤5 kg) and 15.6% (187) had high (>5kg) PPWR. Independent predictors for early PPWR were excessive gestational weight gain (GWG), lack of breastfeeding, higher dietary fat intake, insulin use during pregnancy, multiparity, lower prepregnancy BMI, and lower education degree. Compared to PPWR
