Mother's BMI Linked to Fatter Babies

More early nutritional child abuse.
Babies of mothers with a higher pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI) are fatter and have more fat in their liver, a study published in September's issue of the journal Pediatric Research has found. The researchers from Imperial College London say that the effect of a mother's BMI on her child's development in the womb might put them on a trajectory towards lifelong metabolic health problems.
The fat should not reproduce.

Help the kids and kids-to-be (if they survive in the womb).
