Design description
The Generation R Next Study is a population-based cohort study from preconception onwards. In total, about 3600 women are being included in the period 2017-2021. Of all included couples, about 30% is included during the preconception, about 60% during the first trimester of pregnancy and about 10% in the third trimester of pregnancy. Preconception recruitment is performed via social media, door-to-door mailings, mouth-to-mouth, and healthcare professionals. Measurements in the parents-to-be include physical examinations, questionnaires (lifestyle, diet) and biological samples at preconception, and 6 to 13 weeks pregnancy, as well as 30 weeks of pregnancy. The data collection includes innovative embryonic/fetal and placental assessments by repeated ultrasounds at around 6, 9, 12 and 30 weeks. Early childhood follow-up consisted of questionnaires at 1 month, 6 months and 12 months of age. A subgroup of children and their mothers was invited for measurements at the research center at ages 1 month, 6 months and 12 months.
