Maternal Lifestyle Factors and Fetal Macrosomia Risk: A Review

open access: yesEuropean Medical Journal Reproductive Health, 2016
Fetal macrosomia is associated with a number of health complications for both mother and infant in the immediate, short, and long-term. Maternal obesity and excessive gestational weight gain (GWG) have long been associated with fetal macrosomia, however ...

Prolactin in high‐metabolic risk pregnancies: Associations with maternal obesity and metabolic health

open access: yesActa Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
Higher maternal BMI before and during early pregnancy is associated with lower prolactin levels across gestation and a reduced prolactin rise. Prolactin in pregnancy may reflect maternal metabolic health and has potential relevance to lactation outcomes.

Trends in risk factors associated with the increasing labor induction rate: A nationwide register study in Finland 2005–2023

open access: yesActa Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
In this nationwide Finnish register study, the doubling of the induction of labor rate (2005–2023) was associated with advanced maternal age, obesity, and gestational diabetes mellitus, and a shift toward earlier delivery. Prelabor rupture of membranes, fear of childbirth, and other pregnancy‐related problems—despite their lower prevalences—showed the ...
