title: [Reliability of the pre-labor weight as a reference mark].
abstract: Total weight gain during pregnancy has been an anthropometric mean associated with the birth condition. Based on the fact that it is impossible to evaluate every woman in the pregestational period, the referred pregestational weight at week 30 has been evaluated. Such validation was done, comparing the weight gain of a group of women that referred their pregestational weight, with another group who had both weights evaluated. The results suggest, that the women studied, knew and referred correctly the data.
