Three women are now entering their third trimester of pregnancy. They’ve kept in contact the entire time, occasionally comparing their pregnancy experiences. Inevitably, the topic of weight gain comes up. All women are 5’4". Olynda began her pregnancy underweight at 100 pounds and has gained 30 pounds so far. Lynn began her pregnancy at 170 pounds and has maintained the 10-pound weight loss from her first trimester. She continues to weigh 160 pounds and her baby’s growth and development on track. Nadia was the only woman to begin her pregnancy journey at a healthy weight of 120 pounds and has gained 55 pounds. Although Nadia began her pregnancy at a healthy weight, her high weight gain during pregnancy leaves her at an increased risk for developing gestational diabetes and gestational hypertension. She is also at greater risk for preterm delivery or a need for a C-section delivery. a. True
b. False

Being overweight before or during pregnancy is a risk factor that can cause gestational diabetes what can lead to an overweight baby or put at risk the life of it. These factors lead to C-sections deliveries due to the big size of the baby or due to complications. High blood pressure can lead to preeclampsia, this puts at risk the life of the baby and the mother, and it can lead to preterm delivery.
