Background: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) diabetes diagnosed in the second or third trimester of pregnancy.
Objective: Evaluate if the greater than expected weight gain (HEWG) in pregnancy is a risk factor for the development of GDM.
Material and methods: Analytical, observational, longitudinal, retrolective study, which included pregnant women between 15 and 40 years of age, with > 2 prenatal check-ups, somatometry and complete medical history was made; the HEWG was determined. Odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) were calculated. Variables with significance were entered into a multiple logistic regression model (MLR), where the dependent variable was GDM.
Results: 1000 pregnant women with a median age of 28 years were included. In the MLR The pregestational body mass index (BMI) with overweight had an OR of 1.3 (95% CI: 0.86-1.98), BMI with obesity an OR of 2.57 (95% CI: 1.6- 4.14), the HEWG during pregnancy had an OR of 1.14 (95% CI: 0.71-1.81), age > 30 years shows an OR of 2.24 (95% CI: 1.55-3.25).
Conclusions: HEWG during pregnancy is not an independent risk factor for the development of GDM. The main ones are age > 30 years and pre-gestational obesity.
