Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Maternal and childhood obesity have dramatically increased and continue to present a significant health problem. Studies show that offspring of overweight (body mass index, BMI \>25-29.9) and obese (BMI ≥30) women are at increased risk of newborn and age 1-year adiposity, and infant adiposity predicts childhood and adult obesity. The investigators hypothesize that infants of overweight/obese (OW/OB) mothers have both relative hyperphagia and are provided human milk with increased caloric composition, leading to obesity. The investigators propose an intervention study to calibrate milk or formula intake in infants of OW/OB mothers so as to avoid overweight infants at 6 months of age.
