Abstract
Many African countries are experiencing a double burden of under- and over-nutrition due to factors such as globalisation, urbanisation, changing diet, and cultural perceptions of weight. Pregnancy is a trigger point for the development of obesity, and maternal obesity is associated with short- and long-term adverse effects in the mother and child. However, while the effects of maternal under-nutrition are well known and addressed, there is scarcity of data on maternal obesity in African countries.
