I feel pretty confident that you can't back that up, so I'm fine with you continuing to feel that way.

What a bunch of nagging busybodies.

OR we see a pregnant woman smoking a cigarette and we say "what a dumbass bitch, doesn't she know she is probably harming her unborn child?" Truth is she probably doesn't care that she has a real chance of harming her unborn child, I say as long as my tax dollars don't go to providing long term health care to this unborn child then it isn't my problem.

Obese Women More Likely to Have Babies With Birth Defects, Study Shows
By Kathleen Doheny
WebMD Health News
Reviewed by Louise Chang, MD

Feb. 10, 2009 -- Women who are obese during pregnancy have a higher risk than normal-weight women of having babies with certain birth defects, including neural tube defects such as spina bifida, heart problems, and cleft palate and lip, according to a new review.
"It is important to note that birth defects are a rare event and occur in 2%-4% of pregnancies, so the risk remains very low," says Judith Rankin, PhD, a study co-author and a reader in material and perinatal epidemiology at the University of Newcastle in England. "The last thing we want to do is scare women.”
Rather, the goal is to inform them, she says, and to encourage women who are obese to get preconception counseling about weight loss.
The new report, published in this week's Journal of the American Medical Association, is a review of previously published work. Rankin and her colleagues culled the medical literature, pooled the results of 18 studies, and reviewed the findings of 39 other studies to determine if the association between obesity and birth defects still held up. It did.
Obesity & Birth Defects: The Study

Rankin's team undertook the study because of the growing problem of obesity in women of childbearing age. In the U.S., one-third of women 15 and older are obese, the authors note, and those numbers are expected to rise.
"This is a very important public health issue given the growing numbers of women who are obese at the start of pregnancy," says Rankin, who notes that obesity is also increasing in the U.K.
Obesity & Birth Defects: Results

In the new analysis, women who were obese before pregnancy or in early pregnancy had a significantly increased risk of having a baby with birth defects. The risks differed for specific problems.

The risk of spina bifida was more than two times as high for obese pregnant women, and the overall risk of neural tube defects was nearly twice as high.
The risk of cardiovascular defects was 30% higher.
The risk of cleft lip and cleft palate, either singly or together, was about 20% higher.
The risk of hydrocephaly (an abnormal buildup of fluid in the brain) was 60% higher.
Limb reduction abnormalities were 30% higher.

The definitions of overweight and obese differed somewhat from study to study, but many studies used those set by the World Health Organization -- a body mass index or BMI of 25 and above for overweight and 30 and above for obese.
More research is needed to determine if the link between excess weight and birth defects holds for overweight women. "There isn't the same amount of research evidence for overweight as there is for obesity,'' Rankin says.
Obesity & Birth Defects: Explaining the Link

Exactly how obesity increases birth defect risk isn't known, but the researchers offer possible explanations.

Because maternal diabetes is known to increase the risk of birth defects, and obese women are at higher risk for type 2 diabetes, the mother-to-be may have undiagnosed diabetes.
Obese women have been shown to have nutritional deficiencies, especially reduced levels of folate, which is important to prevent neural tube defects. Obese women may need more than the amount routinely recommended to prevent birth defects.

I saw a overweight pregnant women drinking a Mt Dew today. I think I'll go on Facebook and express my outrage.

I'm not a huge fan of of BP and while I don't really enjoy confronting random strangers, I'm on board with BP holding this woman accountable. Probably could have been more graceful in the way he did it but maturity comes with age. I don't have a huge problem with it.

What's he holding this woman accountable for? Her rights or his beliefs?

You seem a little too ripe for confrontation which may be part of your problem. I didn't say "I don't like that guy". I said, "I'm not a huge fan" which is a much nicer way of saying "I don't like that guy". It's akin to saying, "I'm concerned for the welfare of your unborn child" which is a much nicer way of saying "you're a worthless, selfish POS".
