Title: Promoting Postpartum Weight Loss in Overweight Women
Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to evaluate, in a five-year randomized controlled trial, the efficacy of an intervention (AMP - ACTIVE MOTHERS POSTPARTUM) to increase physical activity and promote a healthy diet (decreased calorie and fat intake) for weight loss among postpartum women who were overweight or obese prior to pregnancy. The hypothesis is that the proportion of women losing at least 10% of BMI from baseline to 12 months post-intervention will be significantly greater in the AMP intervention arm than in the minimal care arm.

Gestational diabetes will be noted but is not an exclusion criterion; however, Type 1 diabetics will be excluded. Exposure to tobacco smoke (either maternal or household smoking) will be noted as it is associated with infant obesity, but will not be an inclusion or exclusion criteria.

INFANT - We will enroll the full-term singleton infants of enrolled mothers. The infants will be enrolled if they are \> 38 weeks gestation, have a birth weight \> 2500 gm, and are without endocrine/chromosomal/genetic abnormality that could interfere with growth.

Exclusion Criteria:

MATERNAL - Not enrolled in WIC clinic or does not plan to continue with WIC clinic after delivery, high-risk pregnancy, hospitalized after discharge of infant, separated from infant, or experiencing significant postpartum complications. If these criteria develop in an enrolled mother, she will remain in the study per CONSORT guidelines, but her infant will not be followed for study outcomes. We have sufficient power with our sample size to allow for these events.

INFANT - Not discharged home with the mother or who are otherwise separated from their mothers or who has a severe illness that can affect growth. CONSORT guidelines will apply in these cases as well as in maternal cases.
