Funded Activity Summary

Unhealthy weight gain during pregnancy contributes to a range of adverse outcomes for the mother and child. Despite guidelines recommending routine weighing and weight gain care be provided by antenatal services, less than 10% of health professionals provide such care, and 50-70% of women gain weight outside of recommended levels during pregnancy. This study aims to determine if a practice change intervention can increase antenatal clinician delivery of recommended gestational weight gain care.
