A selective review of maternal nutrition and birthweight is presented. Data from an observational, longitudinal study in Machakos, Kenya show that the habitual diet of pregnant women provided about 1600 kcal and 50 g of protein per day. Nevertheless the birthweight was acceptable, i.e., the mean value was 3058 g. This good reproductive performance was attributed to the fact that weight-for-height remained acceptable during pregnancy, in spite of low weight gain because of an acceptable pre-pregnant weight. However, the birthweight was found to be influenced by the mother's weight in the third month of pregnancy, her weight gain and her height.
本文对孕产妇营养与出生体重进行了选择性综述。来自肯尼亚马查科斯一项观察性纵向研究的数据表明，孕妇的日常饮食每天提供约1600千卡热量和50克蛋白质。然而，出生体重是可以接受的，即平均值为3058克。这种良好的生殖表现归因于这样一个事实：尽管由于孕前体重可接受，孕期体重增加较少，但身高体重比在孕期仍保持在可接受范围内。然而，研究发现出生体重受母亲怀孕第三个月时的体重、体重增加量和身高的影响。
