The investigators are extracting de-identified retrospective data from the Vanderbilt University Medical Center electronic health record for mother-child pairs. From this data, the investigators will study the association between mothers' weight before, during, and after pregnancy, as well as her weight change during those periods, and its association with the risk of her child developing obesity during the first 5 years of their life. Included mothers must have at least one weight measurement and at least one height measurement; they must have at least one child with weight/length measurements at birth and one additional same day height/weight measurement at or before 5 years of age.
