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
