*< 0.05 vs body mass index <18.5, vs serum ferritin <30 ng/mL and vs FPG × PG (1 h) × PG (2 h) normal, factors significantly associated with macrosomia. Binary logistic regression. 1 h‐PG, plasma glucose 1 h after the oral glucose tolerance test; 2 h‐PG, plasma glucose 2 h after the oral glucose tolerance test; FPG, fasting plasma glucose; FPG × PG (1 h) × PG (2 h), the interaction of plasma glucose at different periods.
