  11. Obesity Risk Increases with the Age of the Child • Obese at 6 years • 50% risk of obesity at 35 yrs • Obese at 10 years • 70 - 80% risk Obesity is a pediatric disorder with adult consequences Source: Bray 2002, Dietz 1998a, Dietzs 1998b,Guo et al. 2002; Kvaavik et al. 2003; `Must 2003, Whitaker et al. 1997;

  14. Children grow up In 3 environments HOME COMMUNITY SCHOOL

  15. The issue of obesity Is multifactorial but parents, especially mothers, have an opportunity to create a healthful home environment

  16. Babies are Getting Bigger Births > 37 wks GA Source: Kramer 2002

  17. Babies Are Getting BiggerAnd Moms Are the Reason • McGill University database 1978-1996 • Mean birth weight and z-score increased over two decades (p < 0.0001) • No trends in premie birth weights • Prepregnancy obesity: from 4.7 to 10.6% • Gestational diabetes: a 20-fold increase

  18. Prenatal • Maternal weight gain • An important predictor of later obesity in the child • Breastfeeding • Encourage breastfeeding • Lower incidence of obesity in breastfed infants

  19. Is Breastfeeding Protective against Obesity Later in Life? • Von Kries, 1999 German 5-6 yr olds • Hediger, 2001 US 3-5 yr olds • Gillman, 2001 US 9-14 yr old • Liese, 2001 German 9-10 yr old • Armstrong, 2003 Scottish 3-4 yr olds • Bergman, 2003 German 6 yr olds • Toschke, 2003 Czech 6-14 yr old

  20. Healthy People 2010 Breastfeeding Recommendations • Increase the proportion of mothers who breastfeed to 75% in the postpartum period • Increase rates to 50% at 6 mos • Increase rates to 25% at 12 mos

  21. In-Hospital Breastfeeding Rates1965-2001 69.5% 61.9% 51.5% 55.0% 46.3% 43.5% 24.7% 21.7%

  22. Breastfeeding Rates at 6 Months1971-2001 32.5% 27.1% 17.6% 19.8% 17.2% 10.4%

  24. Obesity (Pre- or In-Pregnancy Weight) Threatens Breast-feeding (BF) • Pediatric & Pregnancy Nutrition Surveillance Surveys • 51,329 women and babies • Pregnant and gestational weight gain + BF • Both pre- and in-pregnancy obesity resulted in: • Less initiation of BF • Shorter duration of BF • Increasing obesity may threaten recent gains in breast-feeding Source: Li 2003

  25. How do We fix The Problem? Train parents in how and what to feed their baby

  26. Where Do Parents Look for Nutrition Information? • #1 Pediatrician/ Family MD • Social environment • Magazines • Internet • Dietitian • TV • Nutrition Center • Food labels • Media Source: Van Dillen 2003

  27. The 12 Well-Child Visits 8 11 4 12 7 3 9 2 5 6 10 Anticipate problem feeding and activity practices

  28. Newborn/First Visit • For Breastfed and Formula Fed Infants • Help sustain breastfeeding by building skills and offering resources for support • Iron-based formulas only • Hunger and satiety cues • Babies should regulate their own intake • Crying does not always represent hunger • It is normal for 1-3 month old babies to cry up to 3 hours per day

  29. How are Infants Fed? Milk Feeding 2000 Source: Ryan et al. 2002

  31. From birth to 24 months, the child assumes the eating habits of the family The Feeding Infants And Toddlers Study (FITS) Source:Dwyer, 2004

  32. FITS Study Methodology • Adds critical information to augment NHANES, CFSII, Ross Mother’s Survey information • 5 Gerber sponsored FITS surveys over 30 yrs • Snapshot of eating habits in first 2 years (2002) • Random sample of 3022 (Experian database) • Recruitment and household review • 24-hr dietary recall and subject information • Second dietary recall for subset (n=703) • Response rate for recalls 94% Source: Devaney et al. 2004a

  33. Examined transitional times for feeding 4-6 months 7-11 months 12-24 months Diets found to vary widely day-to-day Nutrition is good over the first 24 months Exceeds adequate intake for all nutrients, 0-12 months and almost all nutrients, 12-24 mos Vitamin E low 12-24 mos Fiber low in toddlers But energy intake exceeds Estimated Energy Requirement (EER) at all ages FITS: Nutrient Intakes 0-24 months of age Source: Devaney et al. 2004 b

  34. Energy intake exceeds EER 4-6 mo 10% 7-11 mo 23% 12-24 mo 31% Feeding Breast < EER BF/ formula = EER Formula > ERR Solids and cereals add to energy intakes, especially when coupled with formula Energy Intake Infants and Toddlers

  35. Two-Month Visit • Infant Feeding • Set expectations: • the baby will increase to 24-28 oz/day over the next 2 months • Provide 4 oz four to six times per day • No cereal, no baby food, no juices • Nothing added in the bottle

  36. Not all Crying Needs FoodTwo Months • Learn to interpret the infant’s cries • Parents eager to “empty the bottle” encourage overeating • Satiety cues between 4-12 weeks: • Turns head away or releases nipple • Falls asleep • Comfort the baby • Rocking, massaging, cuddling, or listening to music

  37. Recommendations for Iron • Healthy People 2010: “…reduce iron-deficiency among children aged one to two years to 5%” • AAP Committee on Nutrition • Supplement breastfed infants with iron • Iron-fortified formula is the appropriate substitute for breastfeeding in the first 12 months • Iron fortified infant cereals and grains, as well as meats are important sources of iron, especially for infants who continue to breastfeed beyond 6 months of age

  38. Physical ActivitiesTwo Months • Minimize stationary devices • Use crib mobiles • Encourage reaching, kicking, stretching, and belly play time • No T.V.

  39. 4-Month Visit • The addition of cereal • No solids until developmentally ready to use a spoon, usually 4-6 mos of age • Cereal only with a spoon, not in the bottle • Start a single grain, iron-fortified cereal • Portion: increase to 1-2 Tbsp twice daily • First baby food: vegetables at 6 mos

  40. Excessive Juice is a Risk for Obesity • Both short stature and obesity are tied to excessive intake of juices • Only 100% juice • Only after 6 months of age • Only from a cup, not from a bottle • Limit to 3 oz initially with a maximum of 4-6 oz / day for 1-6 year olds

  41. Fail to consume vegetables as a discrete food: 9-11 months 27 % 12 months 18-23% Dark Green Vegetables are consumed by fewer than 10% of toddlers Deep yellow vegetables decrease from 39% at 9 mos to 14% at 18 mos Potatoes – consume daily 4-6 mos 3.6% 7-8 mos 12.4% 9-11 mos 24.1% 12-14 mos 33.2% 15-18 mos 42.0% 19-24 mos 40.6% By 24 mos 25% of toddlers consume fried potatoes on any day Promote Vegetables for Infants & Toddlers Source: Fox et al. 2004

  42. Feeding the Baby • Infants innately prefer sweet and salty. • Infants may reject bitter and sour • Infants tend to resist new foods (neophobic)

  43. Implications… • More than 10 exposures may be needed to establish a new food. • Children like and eat what is familiar • Parental eating habits influence the baby’s choices at this age

  44. Physical ActivitiesFour Months • Non-restrictive play • Belly play time • Sits with support • Reaches and holds objects • Play gyms • No TV

  45. Top 5 FruitsFITS Study, 2004 Source: Fox et al. 2004

  46. Six-Month Visit • Start vegetables and offer first at each meal • Add one new food every 3-4 days • Portion sizes • Cereal 2-4 tablespoons twice per day • Vegetables 2 tablespoons twice per day • Fruits 2 tablespoons twice per day

  47. Meats & Proteins for Infants & Toddlers Source: Fox et al. 2004

  48. Common Early Feeding Traps • Anticipate that daily milk intake will fall as baby’s food intake increases • Avoid “combo dinners” and baby desserts • The extrusion reflex is normal and does not mean that the baby doesn’t like the food • New foods require multiple presentations • Focus on new eating experiences and skills

  49. Physical Activities Six Months • Minimize stationary devices • Sits without support • Starting to crawl • First signs of independent mobility • No T.V. until after 24 months of age

  50. Nine-Month Visit • Offer many new foods and textures • Introduce a cup as the diet advances • Discuss choking hazards • Never use food as reward or bribe • Offer variety: finger and table foods • New food types and textures • Veggies & fruits at every meal • Establish a variety of meats Aim to Develop Self-feeding Skills
