Summary
The goal of this study is to see if there are negative effects of maternal obesity during pregnancy on offspring's brain development.
Detailed description
This study will recruit pregnant women who are either obese or normal weight and otherwise healthy. We will measure their body composition, food intake and other characteristics during pregnancy. When their babies are born, we will evaluate the brain development of their babies using magnetic resonance imaging and electroencephalography at age two weeks. We will then compare the findings and see if their are differences.
