When mothers were overweight or obese, their infants had a significantly higher risk of being large for gestational age (OR, 1.45, 95%CI, 1.29\u20131.63 and 1.88, 95%CI, 1.67\u20132.11, respectively), having macrosomia (OR, 1.70, 95%CI, 1.55\u20131.87 and 2.92, 95%CI, 2.67\u20133.20, respectively), being admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit (OR, 1.29, 95%CI, 1.12\u20131.48 and 1.91, 95%CI, 1.60\u20132.29, respectively) and being stillborn (OR, 1.27, 95%CI, 1.18\u20131.36 and 1.81, 95%CI, 1.69\u20131.93, respectively).

Importantly, infants had a higher risk of having a low birth weight (LBW) when their mothers were underweight (OR, 1.67, 95%CI, 1.39\u20132.02) or obese (OR, 1.24, 95%CI, 1.09\u20131.41).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>Being overweight or obese was associated with an increased risk of still birth, large for gestational age, macrosomia, admission to the neonatal intensive care unit and LBW, while being underweight was associated with an increased risk of preterm birth, small for gestational age, and LBW.
