What this study is about

Offspring from overweight or obese mothers appear to be at up to 38% increased risk of being admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit than the offspring of mothers with a normal BMI. In terms of Apgar scores at birth, babies of obese mothers have been reported to have a 31% excess risk of having a low Apgar score (defined at \<7 at 1 minute) . Infants born to obese mothers demonstrate a spectrum of outcomes, suggesting that there is a complex interplay of factors that defines the precise altered metabolic environment to which the fetus is exposed and that determines the risk of complications

A promising-looking record is not the same as confirmed eligibility. The study team must review the full criteria and current recruitment status.

Treatments and study arms

compare infant hypoxic events in both groups

Other

early neonatal resuscitation will be done by the pediatrician according to the guidelines, APGAR score of the baby will be calculated,, any hypoxic events will be traced and any need of respiratory support for the baby or NICU admission, as well as weight of the baby, mode of delivery and any birth traumas will be recorded.all this will be compared between two groups.

Primary outcomes
