MSU researcher: Obesity significantly cuts odds of successful pregnancy
Date:11/3/2009

the obese women who were able to become pregnant, the odds of stillbirth were increased more than twofold.
  • Among live births, the odds of premature birth significantly paralleled increasing obesity: from 16 percent for overweight women to 34 percent for women at Class 3.

    "If you are thinking about starting a family, get into the best physical shape possible." Luke said. "Control the factors you can such as drinking alcohol and smoking and remember, body weight is just as important."
