Beverage Intake During Pregnancy and Childhood Adiposity

# metadata.dc.description.abstract[].value
OBJECTIVES: To examine associations of sugar sweetened beverages
                (SSBs) and other beverage intake during pregnancy with adiposity
                in midchildhood (median age of 7.7 years). METHODS: We studied
                1078 mother-child pairs in Project Viva, a prospective prebirth
                cohort study. Exposures were sugary and nonsugary beverage
                intake assessed in the first and second trimesters of pregnancy
                by using a food frequency questionnaire. Main outcome measures
                were offspring overall adiposity (BMI z score, fat mass index
                [FMI, kg/m2] from dual-energy radiograph absorptiometry, and sum
                of subscapular [SS] and triceps [TR] skinfold thicknesses) and
                central adiposity (SS:TR ratio and waist circumference).
                RESULTS: In the second trimester, mean (SD) SSB intake was 0.6
                (0.9) servings per day. Thirty-two percent of mothers were
                multiracial or people of color, 68% were college graduates, and
                10% smoked during pregnancy. In midchildhood, mean (SD) BMI z
                score was 0.38 (1.00), and the FMI was 4.4 (1.9) kg/m2. In
                multivariable models adjusted for multiple maternal and child
                covariates, each additional serving per day of SSB was
                associated with higher BMI z scores (0.07 U; 95% confidence
                interval [CI]: -0.01 to 0.15), FMI (0.15 kg/m2; 95% CI: -0.01 to
                0.30), SS + TR (0.85 mm; 95% CI: 0.06 to 1.64), and waist
                circumference (0.65 cm; 95% CI: 0.01 to 1.28). Stratified models
                suggested that the associations were due primarily to maternal,
                not child, SSB intake and to sugary soda rather than fruit
                drinks or juice. We did not find differences between boys and
                girls, nor did we observe the effects of sugar-free soda or of
                first-trimester beverage intake. CONCLUSIONS: Higher SSB intake
                during the second trimester of pregnancy was associated with
                greater adiposity in midchildhood.
