Abstract
Among obese women, EGW adherence to IOM guidelines did not affect GDM diagnosis in our data. Total gestational weight gain within and greater than the IOM recommendations was associated with birth of LGA neonate. Using arenas of practice, health policy, and education nurses can assist in decreasing the incidence of LGA and GDM.
