“…Maternal body mass index (BMI) and weight gain during pregnancy are associated with birth weight, and then childhood obesity (Li et al, 2019). Maternal smoking during pregnancy is another modifiable risk factor for adverse neonatal outcomes, including birth weight (Hibbs et al, 2023). Although the adverse associations between the low birth weight and some factors are known (Hibbs et al, 2023;Howe et al, 2012), growth in the first postpartum months is not clear.…”

Although the adverse associations between the low birth weight and some factors are known (Hibbs et al, 2023;Howe et al, 2012), growth in the first postpartum months is not clear. Therefore, evaluating the pattern of anthropometry in exclusively breastfed newborns and associated factors are of particular importance for neonatal health.…”

ObjectiveWe aim to assess the changes and associated factors in newborn anthropometry in the first month for full‐term, healthy, and exclusive‐breastfed infants.MethodsNeonatal anthropometric measurements were taken on day 5, day 15, and day 30 after delivery. Generalized estimating equations (GEE) analyzed the changes.ResultsFrom 169 mother–newborn pairs, GEE showed that weight gain during the first month was influenced by maternal body mass index (BMI), delivery type, birth weight, and jaundice after adjusting confounding factors (p < .05). The neonatal length was affected by the smoking status of parents, gestational maternal health problems, maternal height, birth weight, and jaundice (p < .05). Neonatal head circumference was influenced by the smoking status of parents, gestational maternal health problems, maternal BMI, delivery type, maternal height, and birth weight.ConclusionAdverse perinatal factors including mother's smoke exposure, maternal obesity and diabetes, cesarean birth, and neonatal hyperbilirubinemia influence anthropometry in the first months of life.
