Background: Gestational weight gain and body mass index (BMI) play important role in the outcomes of pregnancy. Weight gain during pregnancy, based on maternal pre-pregnancy body mass index, is determined. In this study, was evaluated the relationship of body mass index and weight gain of pregnancy with maternal-fetal outcomes.Methods: 476 healthy pregnant women with singleton fetus were divided based on body mass index and weight gain of pregnancy. Information on maternal age, socio-demographic status, parity, early pregnancy weight, gestational weight gain, maternal height, previous history of preterm delivery, nausea, and vomiting were collected by a medical-midwifery questionnaire. Phases of labor (delivery), gestational age, mode of delivery, neonatal characteristics and postpartum bleeding were recorded in the delivery information form.Findings: Pregnancy outcomes were better in women with normal weight gain. Women with low weight and low weight gain during pregnancy had more low-birth-weight newborns. Also, women with overweight and gestational weight gain were exposed to higher rates of cesarean delivery and postpartum hemorrhage. Significant differences were found between maternal body mass index with induction of labor, fetal malposition, mode of delivery, birth weight, nausea, vomiting, and weight gain during pregnancy. Women with adequate weight gain had appropriate outcomes in relation to weight, length, head and chest circumference of newborns and methods of delivery and postpartum hemorrhage.Conclusion: Our findings indicate that women with abnormal body mass index in early pregnancy or inappropriate weight gain during pregnancy should get special care to prevent complications of pregnancy and childbirth and to protect the health of mother and child.
