Obesity poses major risks to maternal and child health. This thesis examined the impact of maternal lifestyle and antenatal lifestyle interventions on preventing obesity and associated complications. Findings revealed a link between low dietary quality and increased preterm birth risk. Lifestyle interventions showed no significant impact on childhood weight or growth. Emerging app-supported approaches to prevent pregnancy complications require further research, development, and standardized reporting.
