Abstract

Throughout the life course, there are major life transitions that are associated with reduced physical activity, which may have further implications for health and wellbeing. Having a child is one such transition that has been identified as a critical transformative experience and inflection point for obesity. We will conduct a scoping review of available evidence exploring the impact of having a child on physical activity in the United Kingdom, using best-practice methodological frameworks.
