Gestational weight gain (GWG) constitutes an essential aspect of the gestational process. Due to factors such as pregestational body mass index (BMI), nutritional intake, level of physical activity, and psychological aspects, the recommended GWG may not be achieved, leading to adverse neonatal outcomes. Adolescents, due to their physiological and mental developmental stage, are at a higher risk of inappropriate GWG. Our aim is to highlight the importance of GWG in our population and to determine the correlation with perinatal outcomes. Methods. Pregnant adolescents who attended a tertiary care institution for prenatal care were included; maternal data such as preBMI and GWG were used to determine maternal and neonatal outcomes using the chi-square test and OR determination. Results. A total of 202 adolescent pregnant patients were included, comprising those with inadequate GWG (n = 70), adequate GWG (n = 85), and excessive GWG (n = 47). A statistically significant association was found between low BMI and inadequate GWG. Patients with inadequate GWG demonstrated a correlation with IUGR and low birth weight, while patients with excessive GWG gave birth to macrosomic neonates. Conclusion. We concluded that previous habits play a significant role in determining weight gain throughout pregnancy. GWG has a direct impact on neonatal growth and development.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/jcm13071839","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,3,22]],"date-time":"2024-03-22T10:03:59Z","timestamp":1711101839000},"page":"1839","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Impact of Pre-Gestational BMI and Gestational Weight Gain on Fetal Development Outcomes in Adolescent Pregnant Women"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"13","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6541-5934","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Orly","family":"Grobeisen-Duque","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Departamento de Inmunobioqu\u00edmica, Instituto Nacional de Perinatolog\u00eda Isidro Espinosa de los Reyes, Ciudad de Mexico 11000, Mexico"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7091-8840","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Oscar","family":"Villavicencio-Carrisoza","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Departamento de Inmunobioqu\u00edmica, Instituto Nacional de Perinatolog\u00eda Isidro Espinosa de los Reyes, Ciudad de Mexico 11000, Mexico"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Carlos Daniel","family":"Mora-Vargas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Departamento de Inmunobioqu\u00edmica, Instituto Nacional de Perinatolog\u00eda Isidro Espinosa de los Reyes, Ciudad de Mexico 11000, Mexico"},{"name":"Escuela Nacional de Ciencias Biologicas del Instituto Politecnico Nacional, Ciudad de Mexico 11350, Mexico"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Carolina Penelope","family":"Arteaga-Lopez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Departamento de Inmunobioqu\u00edmica, Instituto Nacional de Perinatolog\u00eda Isidro Espinosa de los Reyes, Ciudad de Mexico 11000, Mexico"},{"name":"Instituto de Ciencias de la Salud, Universidad Aut\u00f3noma del Estado de Hidalgo, Pachuca 42000, Mexico"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Maria Guadalupe","family":"Martinez-Salazar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Departamento de Inmunobioqu\u00edmica, Instituto Nacional de Perinatolog\u00eda Isidro Espinosa de los Reyes, Ciudad de Mexico 11000, Mexico"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Alejandro","family":"Rosas-Balan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Coordinaci\u00f3n de Medicina de la Adolescente, Instituto Nacional de Perinatolog\u00eda Isidro Espinosa de los Reyes, Ciudad de Mexico 11000, Mexico"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5726-5953","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Moises","family":"Le\u00f3n-Ju\u00e1rez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Departamento de Inmunobioqu\u00edmica, Instituto Nacional de Perinatolog\u00eda Isidro Espinosa de los Reyes, Ciudad de Mexico 11000, Mexico"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Maria Isabel","family":"Villegas-Mota","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Unidad de Enfermedades Infecciosas y Epidemiolog\u00eda, Instituto Nacional de Perinatolog\u00eda Isidro Espinosa de los Reyes, Ciudad de Mexico 11000, Mexico"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3365-2932","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Veronica","family":"Zaga-Clavellina","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Departamento de Inmunobioqu\u00edmica, Instituto Nacional de Perinatolog\u00eda Isidro Espinosa de los Reyes, Ciudad de Mexico 11000, Mexico"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ma.
