Global Priority

• Pre-pregnancy, maternal and infant nutritional status varies … according to demographic and socioeconomic factors

• Poor maternal nutritional conditions … during fetaldevelopment and early life … increased risk of NCDs and obesity throughout the life-course

• The importance of the intergenerational impact of nutrition leads to new policy challenges and raises critical questions about protecting and promoting public health through maternal and infant nutrition

Women are most likely to be living in food insecure households

Half of mothers under the age of 25 skipped meals in order to feed their children

Lone parents, especially women, most likely to be accessing food banks and have the highest gap between income and adequate living standards

Anna talking about frightening risk communication

“It does frighten you coz I went home and sat and cried my eyes out when they’ve said to me ‘you’re gonna have a massive baby’, because I’ve panicked about how I’m gonna get her out”

Nulliparous woman talking about accusatorial approach to risk communication

“I was so excited, after years of struggling to become pregnant, I finally met my midwife. After approximately 10 minutes into the conversation, she suddenly said. ‘Don’t expect to be able to breastfeed when your BMI is so high’. I felt slammed up against the wall, did not really hear more of the conversation. I was devastated.”

How much gestational weight gain?

Gestational Weight Gain: SGA/LGA

(Fauchner et al 2015)

Gestational weight gain with best outcomes for LGA and SGA:• Class 1 obesity = 5-9kg• Class 2 obesity = 1 to <5kg• Class 3 obesity = 0kg

23 studies

n = 1,309,136 women

Patterns of gestational weight gain

(Goldstein et al. 2018)

Gestational weight gain and postnatal weight retention

• PWR up to 21 years

• n=67,853 women

• Excessive GWG (for any pre-pregnancy BMI) compared with women who gained the recommended weight in pregnancy for their BMI

Determinants

Overview

Health professionals – impact on practice?

Spend less time with patients, fewer health-related discussions, patients perceived as: noncompliant, overindulgent, lazy, unintelligent, lacking in self-control, weak-willed, dishonest and unsuccessful

(Obesity Action Coalition 2016c, Puhl and Heuer 2009)

Study with midwives:

“…an underlying perception that obesity is unacceptable; something that just requires will power and some participants indicated feelings of repulsion. In focus groups, participants talked about ‘fat’ women, and members of one group were critical of the ‘normalising’ of obesity: ‘now they’ve got a shop with all the real fat clothes, they’re all sharing their dress styles like the rest of us.’ Concern was also expressed about obese women gaining weight between each pregnancy: ‘they just come back fatter, it’s disgusting’ ” (Schmied et al 2011)

Weight Bias and Health Professionals

Stigma experienced outside pregnancy reinforced by health professionals in pregnancy (e.g. greedy, lazy, not intelligent)

Feeling judged, guilt, blamed – bad parent

Feeling dismissed by health professionals

Humiliating comments – e.g. bodies being unattractive

Avoid confronting health professionals about treatment – impact on antenatal care

(Nyman et al 2010, Lavendar and Smith 2016, Furber and McGowan 2011, Heslehurst et al 2015,

Keenan and Stapleton 2010, Phelan et al 2015)

Weight Bias in Pregnancy

Denise talking about language

“because she couldn’t get a good picture, I was just about to say ‘oh is it because I’m overweight?’, and the way she turned around and said ‘there’s obviously a lot of you to get through’, which I thought was the only bad thing … it was the way she said it, I mean she could have said like obviously ‘it’s harder’, but she just said ‘there’s a lot of you to get through’”

Anita talking about non-verbal language

“you can tell when some people have an issue they don’t say anything but they don’t like to touch you”

Melanie talking about her experience of stereotypes

“I think there’s just something wrong with the way that people who are overweight are viewed in this country by everybody, whether you are pregnant or not…there’s just an assumption that you’re a bit thick, and that’s why you are overweight”

(Heslehurst et al 2013, Heslehurst et al 2015, Mills et al 2015)

Lisa talking about past experiences with health professionals

“Whenever I was seeing the doctor, I would go in to see them for something different but the first thing they’d say is “your weight’s too high”. “I know my weight is too high, I’m not here to see you about my weight, I’m here about this”… they would almost always have a go and it really upset me to the point where I ended up losing my temper with the doctor one day, “I don’t really care about my weight, I’m not here about my weight, I’m here for something else, get off my back, I’ll get it sorted out in my own time”… I didn’t go and see another doctor for ages because well, [I thought] they’re going to mention my weight and I don’t want to go … I was constantly sick of the doctor going on at me all the time about it, I was like “I know I’m fat, I know I need to lose weight you’re not going to help by having a go at us”

Key Messages

Maternal obesity is a clinical and public health priority

1st 1000 days, opportunity to alter fetal environment

There are obesity-related risks

in pregnancy, postnatally and life-long

for both mother and baby

Obesity development is complex and should not be overly simplified to diet and physical activity behaviours

Inequalities are key

Weight bias and obesity stigma are prevalent in maternity services

What is preconception?

Preconception interventions – what is the evidence?

Overview: Preconception Interventions

Preconception Interventions: who is the target group?

• Developing interventions requires knowing the target population

• Different life stages have different:• Determinants of obesity• Motivations to change behaviours• Stakeholders to support intervention delivery• Messages specific to pregnancy • Opportunities for interventions are different

Discuss:• When thinking about “preconception”

who do you think about?• Who is the target group(s) for

preconception interventions?• Why?

Overview: Preconception Interventions

Preconception interventions• Systematic searches for evidence

Cochrane Review: Directed preconception health programs and interventions for improving pregnancy outcomes for women who are overweight or obese.

“We identified no studies that met the inclusion criteria for this review” (Ospray et al 2015)

“few interventions in the preconception period are targeted at maternal obesity.”… “health services are organised around prevention of unintended pregnancy in family-

planning clinics or screening for and managing medical disorders in pregnancy, with little attention being given to planning and preparation for pregnancy”

(Hanson et al 2016)

“We did not identify enough good quality studies conducted in the preconception period to enable us to perform a meta-analysis or draw firm conclusions about effectiveness”

(Barker et al 2018)

Maternal weight at 20 years, maternal pre-pregnancy weight (n=1,756)Reference group: Moderate weight gain 0.0 to 0.55 kg/year

• High weight gain: ≥0.55 kg/year (n = 715) • Gestational diabetes OR of 1.9 (95% CI 1.1–3.3)

(Diouf et al 2011)

Pre-pregnancy weight change before pregnancy (observational data)

Inter-pregnancy weight change: GDM (observational data)

“Across all BMI categories, mothers with significant weight gain (i.e., moving from a lower BMI category into a higher category) had an increased risk for the development of diabetes [GDM and T2DM]… Mothers who maintained their inter-pregnancy BMI weight category or who moved to a lower BMI category had reduced risk [GDM and T2DM] ” (Whiteman et al 2011)

• Miscarriage RR 1.43 (95% CI 1.22 to 1.67)

Is this strong enough evidence to refuse/delay fertility treatment on the basis of BMI until women have lost weight?

Key Messages

Preconception is agreed to be an important time for intervention

Earlier than 1st 1000 days, opportunity to alter fetal environment

BUT – there is a lack of good quality intervention evidence

Observational evidence - inter-pregnancy weight change impacts on subsequent pregnancy, opportunity to intervene

Restricting fertility treatment based on BMI – ethical?

Preconception bariatric surgery
