NCT02205281

Brief Summary

The purpose of this pilot study is to test the feasibility of an innovative, couples based approach to weight management during pregnancy. The primary hypothesis is that a couples-based behavioral weight management program will reduce the rate of gestational weight gain compared to standard care.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Gestational weight gain

    Rate of gestational weight gain will be computed as difference between weights measured at study entry and gestational week 35; this difference will be divided by the number of weeks of observation during pregnancy (i.e., weeks between study entry and final pregnancy assessment). If gestational week 35 is unavailable, most proximal clinic visit weight will be used.

    16 weeks gestation, 35 weeks gestation

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Partner's weight loss

    study entry, when pregnant partner reaches 35 weeks gestation

Study Arms (2)

Standard Care

NO INTERVENTION

Lifestyle Intervention

EXPERIMENTAL
Behavioral: Lifestyle Intervention

Interventions

The intervention is a multi-component program designed to prevent excessive gestational weight gain in overweight and obese women and to promote weight loss in their non-pregnant overweight and obese partners through modifications of diet, exercise, and behavioral strategies during pregnancy.
