Overweight Pregnant Women May Be Putting Their Infants At Risk

And the early nutritional child abuse goes on.
In recent years, there has been a large increase in the prevalence of overweight and obese women of childbearing age, with approximately 51% of non-pregnant women ages 20 to 39 being classified as overweight or obese.

A new article published in the journal Nursing for Women's Health finds that obesity in pregnant women is associated with pregnancy complications, birth defects, as well as a greater risk of childhood and adult obesity in infants born to obese mothers.
Yet another reason to make fat people pay more for having kids since:

following the fat parents for evidence of early nutritional child abuse (an appropriate preventive action) will cost,

registering fat pregnant people with Child and Family Services so they can be followed-up as fat parents for evidence of early nutritional child abuse, in this case nutritional child abuse years after the kids are born (another appropriate preventive action since the kids of fat folks are at higher risk of becoming fat) will cost.

These actions would be a good start.
