Postnatal exercise to activate baby's brown fat
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This trial tests if exercise after childbirth can activate your baby's brown fat, which helps with metabolism. It may benefit mothers and their healthy, full-term babies.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 45 years old
- Your BMI before pregnancy or in the first trimester was between 18.5 and 40
- You have a healthy, single-baby pregnancy
- You plan to exclusively breastfeed for more than 3 months
- You have a full-term baby (born between 37 and 42 weeks) and your baby weighs above the 10th percentile for their gestational age

This trial tests how a short bout of exercise in a warm environment affects breast milk production and composition. It could help understand safe exercise for breastfeeding mothers.
This study tests an exercise program designed for women who have given birth within the past 2 years. Researchers want to learn how exercise affects energy levels and overall health after pregnancy.
This trial studies whether a structured exercise program during pregnancy can help lower the risk of childhood obesity. If you qualify, you may be asked to exercise during early pregnancy and share information with the research team.
This study tests whether a supervised exercise program during pregnancy can improve health for first-time mothers and their babies. You would attend regular exercise sessions and be monitored throughout your pregnancy.
This study compares two types of exercise—short, intense intervals versus moderate steady activity—during pregnancy and looks at effects on mothers and children. It also checks how participants do on health, fitness, and well-being tests before, during, and after pregnancy.
This trial looks at how “perinatal programming” (early-life influences starting around pregnancy and the first month) may affect babies. It enrolls healthy, full-term births and compares families who can follow an all-breastfeeding or all-formula plan.
