As part of an extensive four-year follow-up study of the development of obesity in young adults, the changes in the body mass index (weight/height) of women who became pregnant and the changes in non-pregnant women were compared. Findings showed that at 9 months postpartum, the total group of pregnant women did not gain more body mass than expected from aging. It is suggested that maternal obesity may especially occur in women who breast-feed their children for long periods.
