Maternal and Child Health

Better Bottle-Feeding Study

The purpose of our study is to learn more about how bottle-feeding influences infant feeding. For this study, we are recruiting formula-feeding mothers with 0-8 week old infants. Mothers and infants who agree to participate in our 12-week study will be asked to participate in 4 home visits wherein we will observe mother-infant feeding interactions and assess infant growth and development. Families who participate in our study will be eligible to receive free baby bottles and up to $100. This study is funded by the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development.

Principal Investigator: Alison Ventura, akventur@calpoly.edu, 805-756-5693
