Abstract:
This pre- and post-test quasi-experimental design study pilot tested an educational intervention designed to increase knowledge of and change attitudes toward prenatal factors that increase risk of childhood offspring obesity in 36 pregnant women. Educational intervention content included monitoring blood glucose, gestational weight gain in pregnancy, healthy lifestyle choices, and breastfeeding. Education intervention delivery method included: Verbal, written, and video. Participants\' knowledge improved after the intervention for most topics (p = .03-.000). Their attitude score also differed before and after intervention (p = .002). Video delivery mode was the most useful, attractive, and most helpful method. This study showed an education intervention could potentially increase pregnant women\'s knowledge and attitudes toward offspring obesity risk factors.
