Data is presented as raw parameter estimates (β) and estimates transformed to the original scale with respective 95% confidence intervals and corresponding P values. Fetal growth conditioned on genetic birth weight risk score (GRS) with or without co-conditioning on maternal pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI) and fetal sex was modelled using linear mixed regression. GA2 × GRS represents the additive per allele effect of the GRS on change in daily proportional weight gain per day. GA2 × BMI represent the additive effect of a one unit (kg·m2) increment in BMI on change in daily proportional weight gain per day. GA2 × Sex represent the additive effect of female fetal sex on change in daily proportional weight gain per day.
