Glycemia data are reported in mean and standard deviation (SD). Data on excessive gestational weight gain (GWG): n = 40 and 43 for the intervention and control groups, respectively. Data on gestational diabetes, glycemia values: n = 37 and 39 for the intervention and control groups, respectively. Cesarean data: n = 44 and 48 for the intervention and control groups, respectively. Maternal hypertension data: n = 43 and 42 for the intervention and control groups, respectively. (Odds Ratio (OR); Confidence Interval (CI).  * Group-by-time = interaction.
