Brief summary
Moms Are Worth It is a lifestyle behavior intervention study aims to prevent excessive gestational weight gain in overweight or obese pregnant women through promotion of the stress management, healthy eating, and physical activity. Eligible women will be randomly assigned to a usual care or an intervention plus usual care group. The intervention will last 20 weeks and will be delivered via weekly web and individual health coaching session (10 of them)
Detailed description
Current effective lifestyle behavior intervention studies aimed to prevent excessive gestational weight gain (EGWG) in overweight or obese pregnant women have limited practicality, scalability, and sustainability because of high participant burden and excessive cost for clinical practice. Also, prior studies paid little or no attention to motivation, emotion and cognition, all of which are critical to motivate and enable individuals to engage in healthy lifestyle behaviors and achieve positive health outcomes. A promising approach to prevent EGWG in overweight or obese pregnant women is through goal-oriented episodic future thinking (GOEFT). This pilot randomized controlled trial, aims to prevent EGWG in overweight or obese pregnant women. The proposed self-directed, web-based GOEFT intervention will focus on increasing motivation (autonomous motivation and self-efficacy) and improving emotion (emotion control and stress) and cognition (executive function, ExF), thus promoting healthy lifestyle behaviors. This will lead to prevention of EGWG and a reduced rate of gestational diabetes, gestational hypertension, cesarean delivery and fetal macrosomia. Our intervention will last 20 weeks (starting at 17 week-gestation). Participants (N = 90; 50% White, 50% minority) will be recruited and enrolled from prenatal care clinics at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center and be randomly assigned to our GOEFT intervention (n = 45) or usual care (n = 45). All participants will be assessed at baseline (\<17 week-gestation, T1), 24-27 week-gestation (T2) and 35-37 week-gestation (T3). Specific aims are (1) to determine feasibility of the GOEFT intervention: recruitment, randomization, retention and intervention implementation, (2) to investigate the potential efficacy of the intervention on gestational weight gain and maternal and birth outcomes, (3) to investigate the potential impact of the intervention on lifestyle behaviors and (4) to investigate the potential impact of the intervention on motivation, emotion and cognition.
Interventions
Individuals in the intervention group will receive a 20-week web-based intervention and individual health coaching focused on stress management, healthy eating and physical activity.

Change in Emotion Regulation
The Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (10 items) was used to measure emotional control. The questionnaire asked participants to report the use of emotional regulatory process using a 7-point scale ranging from 1 (strongly disagree) to 7 (strongly agree). After revise coding 4 items, we summed responses of 10 items to create an emotional control score (ranged from 10 to 70). Higher scores indicated better emotional control.

Change in Executive Function - Behavioral Regulation
The Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function-Adults (75 items) was used to measure executive function. This survey asked participants to rate self-regulation behaviors in the everyday environment using a 3-point Likert scale ranging from 0 (never) to 2 (often). This survey covers 2 main domains: behavior regulation (30 items) and metacognition (45 items). We summed responses to the 30 behavior regulation items to create a behavior regulation score. Behavior regulation scores range from 0-60. We used the same approach to create a composite score for metacognition. Higher scores indicated worse behavior regulation or metacognition. The scores from T1 were compared to scores for T3 to evaluate the effect of the intervention.
