摘要

孕期增加適當的體重對孕婦與胎兒、新生兒的健康是很重要的，懷孕期間婦女體重增加不足或過多均易導致合併症的發生。孕婦體重增加過多是全球日趨嚴重的現象，其所引發的產後體重存留及日後婦女體重過重或肥胖，進而增加罹患慢性疾病的危險是近年來健康促進重要的議題。隨著生殖時期婦女肥胖盛行率增加與高比例的婦女孕期體重增加超過建議標準，研究焦點應包含關注母親長期的健康。因此，探討懷孕婦女體重增加行為及其相關因素（如：個人生理因素、心理社會因素及環境與文化）有助於了解此行為的相關知識，可作為日後醫護人員在指導懷孕婦女之依據，並提供未來發展健康促進研究介入策略以及相關健康促進政策之參考。

The purpose of this article is to review pregnant women's weight gain behavior and its related factors, including physical, psychosocial, environmental and cultural. Excessive weight gain during pregnancy is a worldwide problematic trend. Either insufficient or excessive weight gain during pregnancy may lead to perinatal complications. Regulating weight gain during pregnancy is essential to the health of mother, fetus and newborns' health. Weight retention that continues to postpartum leads overweight and obesity and may increase the risk of chronic diseases. Better understanding of women's weight gain behavior during pregnancy may help healthcare providers devise better prenatal patient education. More research is needed to study the long-term health consequences from the increased prevalence of obesity in women during childbearing ages and the higher proportion of excessive weight gain during pregnancy.
