Although most pregnancies elapse uneventful, complications arise in a substantial number. This thesis will focus on preeclampsia, intrauterine growth restriction and gestational diabetes, because women who experience these pregnancy complications share an increased cardiovascular and metabolic risk. See Box 1 for the definitions of these pregnancy complications used in this thesis.
