Obesity in pregnancy doubled the risk of death for the child

The science is telling us it in all languages: obesity is a disease that can be deadly. Some time ago we heard that the obesity of the mother affects the future fertility of their daughters, but now a study published in Human Reproduction ricercattori from the University of Newcastle has shown that obesity during pregnancy doubles risk of premature death of the fetus.

Children may die before birth or during the first year of life because of excessive overweight of the mother during the gestation period. The period of pregnancy is very peculiar and delicate and needs all the care and attention. But they are worth very little if no attention is paid to the first body fitness which will house a new life.
