Association of pre-pregnancy body mass index and gestational weight gain with continued breastfeeding until 6 months postpartum in Japanese women: the Japan Environment and Children’s Study

Our results indicate that the effects of GWG on continued BF were associated with pre-pregnancy BMI. Adequate GWG should be recommended to underweight and normal-weight women to promote BF. Efforts toward the prevention of overweight prior to pregnancy should be encouraged to enhance BF.
