Table 2 Singleton term births between 2006 and 2015 from electronic medical records at Geisinger. Note: the lower number of births in 2006 derives from the fact that these births were conceived and delivered in 2006, while for later years the number represents all deliveries in that year regardless of year of conception

From: A retrospective study of gestational weight gain in relation to the Institute of Medicine’s recommendations by maternal body mass index in rural Pennsylvania from 2006 to 2015
