In cohort analysis, women who lost weight in pregnancy (average loss of 3 kg) had lower adjusted weight at 3 but not 12 months. Infants exposed to pregnancy weight loss had lower risk of large-for-gestational age at birth and lower fat mass at 3 months, and no higher prevalence of low infant weight (&amp;lt;5% had weight for age &amp;lt; \u22122 SD). Infants exposed to weight loss in pregnancy showed no evidence of growth faltering or excessive catch-up or catch-down growth.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>CONCLUSIONS<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Among women with gestational diabetes and high BMI, energy restriction or weight loss in pregnancy were associated with no adverse effects on offspring weight or growth in the first year.
