Brief description There are no community-based follow-up (FU) studies of three generations able to examine the impact of earlier generational factors on the developmental pathways of obesity in third generation. The Mater-University of Queensland Study of Pregnancy (MUSP) cohort now has data covering the grandmothers' (GI) reproductive life course and a FU of their children (GII) into adulthood. We now propose a new study of the "children-of-the-children" who are the grandchildren (GIII) of GI and children of GII
