Few studies have explored the associations between body satisfaction and physical activity and weight gain during pregnancy, and none have been conducted in Scandinavia. Hence, the aim of the present study was to evaluate changes in body satisfaction from pre-pregnancy to late pregnancy and investigate whether this differed according to parity. We also wanted to explore the association between body satisfaction and physical activity and weight gain among pregnant women in Norway. This cross-sectional survey used an electronic questionnaire to assess physical activity level, weight gain and women's satisfaction with body weight and size. In total, 150 pregnant women answered the questionnaire. Related-samples Wilcoxon signed rank tests, Mann-Whitney U tests and chi-square tests were used to answer our research questions. The proportion of women who were dissatisfied with their body weight and shape increased from pre-pregnancy to late gestation (body weight = 0.030 and body shape = 0.040). Body dissatisfaction before and during pregnancy was linked to weight gain above recommendations. Characterising oneself as physically active prior to pregnancy was associated with satisfaction with body shape pre-pregnancy. Given that mothers strongly influence how a child will judge their body later in life, the results of this study underline the importance of addressing these issues during pregnancy.
很少有研究探讨身体满意度与怀孕期间的身体活动和体重增加之间的关系，而且在斯堪的纳维亚地区也没有进行过此类研究。因此，本研究旨在评估孕妇从怀孕前到孕晚期的身体满意度变化，并调查这种变化是否因产次而异。我们还想探讨挪威孕妇的身体满意度与身体活动和体重增加之间的关系。这项横断面调查使用电子问卷评估了身体活动水平、体重增加以及孕妇对体重和体型的满意度。共有 150 名孕妇回答了问卷。采用相关样本 Wilcoxon 符号秩检验、Mann-Whitney U 检验和卡方检验来回答我们的研究问题。从怀孕前到孕晚期，对自己体重和体型不满意的女性比例增加（体重：= 0.030，体型：= 0.040）。怀孕前和怀孕期间的身体不满与推荐体重增加有关。怀孕前被认为是积极运动的人，其对体型的满意度较高。鉴于母亲强烈影响孩子日后对身体的评价，本研究结果强调了在怀孕期间解决这些问题的重要性。
