“…Additionally, excessive birth weight increases the risk of hypoglycemia [ 11 ], shoulder dystocia (which increases the possibility of maternal hemorrhage and damage to the brachial plexus or clavicle fracture of the newborn [ 12 ]), injuries to the phrenic nerve, asphyxia, or meconium aspiration syndrome [ 13 ], thus increasing the risk of maternal or infant mortality. Moreover, having inadequate birth weight (<2500 g) is related to developmental complications in the uterine environment, nutritional deficiencies, and premature growth that can lead to hypoglycemia after childbirth and risk of insulin resistance from the first year of life [ 14 ].
