Regarding the child, the importance of the intrauterine
and early postnatal environments for metabolic programming
and modifications of the epigenome is increasingly recognised, 12 — 14 particularly for metabolic diseases such as
obesity and diabetes.15 Thus, GDM is related to macrosomia at birth (> 4 kg), to excess body fat
and (central)
obesity and to insulin secretion in infants
and children, the
obesity being in part mediated by maternal body mass index (BMI) or birth weight.16 — 23 Intrauterine exposure to GDM also doubles the risk for subsequent type 2
diabetes in offspring
compared with offspring of mothers with a high genetic predisposition for type 2
diabetes, but with normal glucose tolerance during the index pregnancy.24 Maternal prepregnancy overweight
and excessive gestational weight gain also predict high birth weight
and adiposity during infancy.12 25 This is highly relevant, as up to 60 % — 70 % of women with GDM are overweight or obese before pregnancy.26 Finally, maternal lifestyle behaviour such as a high fat diet or lack of physical activity during pregnancy can influence offspring adiposity independent of maternal
obesity.12 27
