Post-delivery Maternal-offspring Obesity and Metabolic Risk After a Prepregnancy Weight-loss Intervention

The goal of PrepareD is to examine whether the prepregnancy weight-loss intervention administered during the Prepare trial \[NCT02346162\] has an influence in the postnatal period. PrepareD is a cohort study (no intervention) that will address new specific aims through one in-person visit with mothers and children, dietary recalls, actigraphy, and the use of medical record weights. The goal is to collect data when the child is 3 years old. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the investigators expanded the data collection window in order to collect data up to when the child is 5 years old. The investigators hypothesize that intervening on women before pregnancy is the key to breaking the multigenerational cycle of obesity.
