Mother Infant Nutrition Study

Sponsor: University of Texas at Austin

Summary

Early life influences (including the intrauterine environment, birth weight, and early postnatal growth) shape subsequent weight trajectories and future chronic disease risk. The MINT study will evaluate whether maternal fat mass changes are associated with specific maternal weight trajectories during pregnancy, and with neonatal adiposity at birth. The study is a prospective observational cohort currently enrolling women in early pregnancy,and following mothers and infants after birth.
