A total of 43 550 (3.5%) offspring had any major congenital malformation, and the most common subgroup was for congenital heart defects (n=20 074; 1.6%). Compared with offspring of normal weight mothers (risk of malformations 3.4%), the proportions and adjusted risk ratios of any major congenital malformation among the offspring of mothers with higher BMI were: overweight, 3.5% and 1.05 (95% confidence interval 1.02 to 1.07); obesity class I, 3.8% and 1.12 (1.08 to 1.15), obesity class II, 4.2% and 1.23 (1.17 to 1.30), and obesity class III, 4.7% and 1.37 (1.26 to 1.49). The risks of congenital heart defects, malformations of the nervous system, and limb defects also progressively increased with BMI from overweight to obesity class III. The largest organ specific relative risks related to maternal overweight and increasing obesity were observed for malformations of the nervous system. Malformations of the genital and digestive systems were also increased in offspring of obese mothers.Conclusion: don't marry a fat chick if you want healthy children. Maintaining weight isn't merely about your preferences or her health, but the health of the children.
Conclusions Risks of any major congenital malformation and several subgroups of organ specific malformations progressively increased with maternal overweight and increasing severity of obesity. For women who are planning pregnancy, efforts should be encouraged to reduce adiposity in those with a BMI above the normal range.
One thing I've noticed at the beach is that fat women very often only have one child. If you see a slender, fit mother, she's usually got three or four.

Real life presents this to me daily. I know more than a few obese women. They've got 1-2 kids each, all have some form of physical or mental retardation. To a child. Hypotonia, low motor coordination, poor intellectual development, delayed or poor speech, and a host of other sensory and developmental delays.
The emotional factor is also screwed up, partly genetics and partly circumstances (no father present).
There's stuff we know to be true, but hate it when science points it out to us.
Anecdotally correct. We've got three kids, all little freight trains. My wife is 5'9", 145 lbs now, and was 140 lbs. when I met her eleven years ago. The women on both sides of her family are 5'8" minimum and slim.
Damn, I have to start printing these out and putting a freaking encyclopedia together for my daughters. Once you acquire a sound wife and have children you find out the scarier thing is how to prevent daughters from getting sucked into the quagmire of modern Sodom & Gomorrah
What about muh "your beautiful on the inside"!?
"One thing I've noticed at the beach is that fat women very often only have one child. If you see a slender, fit mother, she's usually got three or four."
A few threads back I wondered if Gamma males tended to have one-child families due to their wives cutting them off after slaking their baby-rabies.
In addition, it's possible that very high obesity rates among r-selected races correlate with greatly decreased birth rates. Maybe making Africans fat will keep them from exploding all over the planet.
Risks of any major congenital malformations were higher in boys than in girls and in offspring of smokers, primiparous women, mothers of low stature, and mothers who were not cohabiting with their partner (table 1⇓). Supplementary eTable 1 provides maternal characteristics by BMI categories.
The not cohabiting wiht their partners part was very interesting, single mothers has a higher risk of fucking up thier child even before they're born...
SirMaorio, interesting as in all cases I've observed (five moms, seven kids) all of the children are boys. One is five and cannot use the bathroom or form words or sentences.
One is just an unfortunate reality. Obese mom but two healthy older sisters. Married parents. He was just born with hypotonia and digestive problems. He will never walk or eat normally, perhaps won't speak either, too soon to tell.
Another boy, older, has a congenital disease that rendered his skull smaller than normal and stunted his brain development. His moms obesity didn't contribute, but it does make it harder for her to care for him. He has three healthy sisters, some have minor cognitive impairment but again, congenital.
Weirdness. I didn't get any genetic consultation before kids. We were willing to accept any offspring and love and care for them. But at times I don't question some of my relatives for their decision to test prior to conceiving. So much you can't know can go wrong. Why take chances with what you do know I.e. Obesity, single mommery? Yeah, yeah, I know. Were told they don't matter.
I believe it's also harder for fat women to get pregnant then women at a healthy weight.
I remember when I got pregnant with my first and they actually brought up the difficulties with obesity and pregnancy in my lamaz class. After having known women to gain 80-90 lbs during pregnancy I now know why they bring it up.
Obesity in livestock is well known to lower fertility. Autopsies on rabbit does that dont get pregnant ober several breedings qill show the abdominal cavity full of fat.
Just as importantly, an obese woman would probably have difficulty getting a decent man to commit to her raising the likelihood of single motherhood. This qould twnd to limit the number of children a woman has unless shes a shameless welfare queen.
The not cohabiting wiht their partners part was very interesting, single mothers has a higher risk of fucking up thier child even before they're born...
That is interesting. I imagine lots of negative behavioral characteristics that may have a genetic root are involved in a single woman allowing herself ti become pregnant. God's natural law will have its say.

Higher stress levels in the single mom? That would be my guess. Higher stress levels and the resulting impacts on the fetus are well known. High stress levels tend to favor females as males are less likely to make it past the first few weeks of gestation in high stress environments. So I wonder if females are more common then average amongst single mothers, mothers that were single during pregnancy.
Hmmm. Most of the fatties I see with kids have a bunch of 'em, often either white mom/mulatto kids or a brood of half-siblings.
Mean IQ= 85 or less.
Obesity is an underlying contributor to every chronic disease of our present times, from cancer to diabetes. Those celebrating Big is Beautiful are today's Marlboro Man.
"One thing I've noticed at the beach is that fat women very often only have one child."
And it's the orange product of mudsharking.
"Just as importantly, an obese woman would probably have difficulty getting a decent man to commit to her raising the likelihood of single motherhood."
How much of the genetic defects they observed for obese mothers can be attributed to lower quality fathers?
One control may be to look at multiple kids with the same couple and track BMI.
Science again explains male mating preferences.
"don't marry a fat chick if you want healthy children"
Among 15 zillion other reasons not to marry said female.
Fertility rates for fat women are even worse.
GUYS GET MARRIED. HAVE WHITE CHILDREN.
-Don't marry fat chicks.
-Marry a "conservative", "traditional" woman (whatever that truly means).
-Marry a woman with fewer than...uh.. 4? partners.
ETC..
So, math is hard. I've been in offices where 90% of the women are fat, from chubby to morbid land whale, all ages. The young ones, you can sometimes tell they would've been cute.
OK look, I mean I guess you can raise the birthrate a little and I don't want to "countersignal" the Racialist Right. For real.
I support having more white babies (as opposed to more brown turd hordes, neanderthal DNA lacking groids, ching-chongs, and so forth, which apparently we MUST have for greedy Gem and White Greed, I mean for the economy and justifying taking away rights and freedom and growing the intelligence-security state, I mean for cultural enrichment.
So Good Luck Men. You are troops coming out of the trenches, into a hail of gun fire, going across a minefield, artillery shells exploding all around, poison gas in your nose. When Falsely Accused and Divorce Raped just think of America, think of the West, think of the White Race.
@Thanks, J.
Three words: marry homeschooled girls
@Sirmaorio - Possible common thread to all the at-risks groups? Poor diet. Fatties obviously, but low-status folks often eat poorly, as do smokers. Single moms may choose poorly on food as they do in other facets of their lives. There is also the possibility of substance abuse, which often higher among those groups (e.g., many smokers drink more than "socially").
David the Good, too late for me, I'm low status, poor, and middle aged and don't give enough of a fuck and will be damned if I work my ass off wage cucking and whatnot to increase my status and marriageability. I could get one of these home schooled females I bet, but her family, friends, relatives, they'd be problematical, let's say. Daddy and Mommy's Little Age they spent all those years homeschooling needs and deserves a Prince. Anyway.
I care. So the problem with you TradCons is you offer simple, easier said than done solutions for individual men. Notice what I ranted above. Not enough quality pussy, not enough.
The Racist White Right will increasingly look to emulate the Jews as it accepts The Great Browning, the Rise of the Beige Power, in N. America, La Raza Cósmica (The Cosmic Race), in Europe White Traitor Whores that gleefully, spitefully "take rapugees over racists" IN-YOUR-FACE-DAD, You Nazi, they'll be making a ZOG and White Elite Appproved New European.
Damn typo, I meant "angel" obviously. They're so precious and deserve The Best. Anyway, dvdivx, you can go that way or embrace the r word, or laugh at it, but what you're saying, that will lead to nastiness and that's just the way it is.
If I could go off topic here a little, I recently spent some time in a rehab center with a, shall we say, mobility challenged population. It was a quality place, not well run but costly and lots of resources for the patients. What struck me about it was that a lot of people who lose mobility gain weight. And within the program there was never a word to anybody about weight gain. Plus the method by which food was offered if anything encouraged weight gain.
Now I don't think people who do not want to diet can be forced to diet, and I doubt there is much benefit to a doctor who brings it up, but really within our medical establishment they should find a way to bring obesity up in the general expectation that a few people would respond to the information. Instead there is nothing.
@Johnny
Hell, cutting HFCS out of the food supply would probably cut obesity in half! That stuff rapes your body's self regulation on insulin which then cascades into obesity and systemic damaged from insulin resistance. HFCS should be banned from commercial food production and removed from the GRAS list.
Thanks, J. Your mental condition is self-evident, and the epitome of the rage of those who (for whatever reason) missed the on-ramp to Happiness Path against those who found it.
"Game" sites promising 30- and 40-something men a map to that on-ramp are akin to Kenyan Prince emails. Men may well retain their attractiveness to women for a long time relative to women, but the reality is that the best of women will be locked down by early 20's, if not all the way back in HS. 30+ men will have all but zero opportunity to meet these girls.
It's largely BS to claim women should lock in a quality man while the girl's youthful bloom is full, but men have all the time in the world. We didn’t, and we don't.
I tire of aging PUA's (e.g. le chateau) telling men to make the same self-destructive mistakes feminists promote for women, while celebrating the low-investment parenting of despicable rabbit-people.
I pity those, men & women alike, who swallowed the lie-saturated kook-aid poured on us these last 50 years. The truth was always there in plain sight, however, albeit parental malpractice didn't help.
The time to grow up, recognize the choices you must make to live a life worth living is sadly in the 13-16 age range. Those who instead insist on being adolescents far into their 20's or even 30's will all but certainly miss that on-ramp.
d.c.sunsets, thanks. I totally agreed about the writer(s) of the French estate. It's weird they'd continue espousing that stuff when they're not even selling PUA books and workshops. I know men online and IRL, have heard countless stories of men that more or less did the right things. Truly they were on the "the Happiness Path", in fact their stories, their lives, had an influence. You'd say they weren't on the true path and I'd say you're full of shit and a deluded jackass. Much of the time I'm happy I didn't get married. Dodged a bullet, is what I feel about it.
"Much of the time I'm happy I didn't get married. Dodged a bullet, is what I feel about it."
We all see what assuages our egos, don't we? Our dialog, such as it is, is simply another illustration of both the unbridgeable gap between people of differing experience and the growing impulse to go to war over that gap (when avoiding entropy counsels mutual indifference.)
This is my indifferent face.
d.c.sunsets, "this is my indifferent face" Lol. You're deep. I knew you'd latch onto my remark about me usually being happy about not getting married. You know about jacking off your ego. I like your posts.
"You know about jacking off your ego."
Puh-leeze. Heavy petting at most.
@Thanks, J.
You're a dead end and you've given up. Got it.
David The Naive, lol, we're having fun here. We want to say yes to life and it's amazing to be alive. I'm not an American apparently and not Pure Snow White so no sweat off my sack. I encourage Pure Northwestern Snow Chimps to increase your numbers, l like your breeds.
