Background.
While rapid early weight gain are common in children who become obese later in life, so is growth faltering in the first 3 months of life.
Objective.
We seek to determine what relationship weight gain in the first six months of age, separated into two 3-month periods, have with the BMI of children ages 4 to 6 years in an inner-city community.
Subjects.
A convenience sample cohort of 154 children attending an inner-city clinic.
Methods.
Consecutive charts were reviewed retrospectively.
Age, gender, birth weight and weight change in the first and second 3 months of life were introduced as fixed factors using mixed linear models with BMI in years 4 to 6 as the dependent variable.
Results.
Weight change quartile in the first 3 months of life did not predict of BMI in years 4 to 6; however, weight changes quartiles during months 4 to 6 were significant predictors for subsequent overweight.
Conclusion.
The data presented herein suggest that, for this specific population, weight gain can be promoted when it is most essential.
It is necessary, however, to identify intermediary variables that could affect outcomes in this and other communities.
