Nowadays, obesity is rising at an alarming rate in both developed and developing countries. Maternal pre-pregnancy obesity has been previously correlated to both obstetrical and neonatal implications. Additionally, maternal pre-pregnancy obesity could play an influencing role and have a dynamic impact in later somatometrical characteristics of the offspring born by obese mothers. The aim of our study was to evaluate the impact of maternal pre-pregnancy obesity in specific obstetrical and neonatal outcomes and also to define its impact on children\'s later life.
