“…Secondly, infant sleeping times remained stable throughout the study, dismissing the notion that excessive crying‐fussing in infants is a result of an ‘over‐tired’ infant due to insufficient sleep . Finally, feeding durations significantly decreased, indicating that crying‐fussing times were not related to a hungry infant, another factor previously associated with infant crying …”

“…25 Finally, feeding durations significantly decreased, indicating that crying-fussing times were not related to a hungry infant, another factor previously associated with infant crying. 26 Interestingly, significant reductions in maternal anxiety and changes in intestinal inflammation were unlikely due to similar patterns of faecal calprotectin in all infants, although the use of this marker in infants is less established than it is in adults. 29 Indeed, the levels fell over time in the present study, probably reflecting increasing maturity of the infant's gut.…”

Summary Background Therapeutic diets for infantile colic lack evidence. In breastfed infants, avoiding “windy” foods by the breastfeeding mother is common. Aim To examine the effects of a maternal low‐FODMAP (Fermentable, Oligosaccharides, Disaccharides, Monosaccharides, And Polyols) diet compared to a typical‐Australian diet on infant crying‐fussing durations of infants with colic in a randomised, double‐blind, crossover feeding study. Methods Between 2014 and 2016 exclusively breastfed infants aged ≤9 weeks meeting Wessel criteria for colic were recruited. Mothers were provided a 10‐day low‐FODMAP or typical‐Australian diet, then alternated without washout. Infants without colic (controls) were observed prospectively and mothers remained on habitual diet. Infant crying‐fussing durations were captured using a Barr Diary. Measures of maternal psychological status and samples of breast milk and infant faeces were collected. Results Mean crying‐fussing durations were 91 min/d in seven controls compared with 269 min/d in 13 colicky infants (P < 0.0001), which fell by median 32% during the low‐FODMAP diet compared with 20% during the typical‐Australian diet (P = 0.03), confirmed by a two‐way mixed‐model analyses‐of‐variance (ƞp2 = 0.719; P = 0.049) with no order effect. In breast milk, lactose concentrations remained stable and other known dietary FODMAPs were not detected. Changes in infant faecal calprotectin were similar between diets and groups, and faecal pH did not change. Median maternal anxiety and stress fell with the typical‐Australian diet (P < 0.01), but remained stable on the low‐FODMAP diet. Conclusions Maternal low‐FODMAP diet was associated with enhanced reduction in crying‐fussing durations of infants with colic. This was not related to changes in maternal psychological status, gross changes in breast milk or infant faeces. Mechanisms require elucidation.

SUMMARY Information on infant feeding and child development was obtained from the 1970 British Births Survey and subsequent follow‐ups at five and 10 years of age. A clinically advantaged subsample of infants who were either exclusively bottle‐fed or exclusively breast‐fed for at least three months were selected in order to minimise biases against a disadvantaged bottle‐fed group. Only in the area of educational ability and attainment were differences observed as a function of the child's feeding patterns as an infant. Higher vocabulary test scores at five years and higher British Ability Scales test scores at 10 years were significantly associated with exclusive breast‐feeding for more than three months. These data support and extend results obtained in previous studies on long‐term developmental differences between breast‐fed and bottle‐fed children. RÉSUMÉ Association a long terme avec ľalimentation chez des nourrissons ďune population en bonne santé Des informations concernant ľalimentation de nourrissons et le développement infantile ultérieur, ont été obtenues à partir de la British Births Survey de 1970 et un suivi ultérieur à cinq et dix ans ďâge. Un sous échantillon de nourrissons en excellente santé nourris exclusivement au sein pour les uns, au biberon pour les autres, durant au moins trois mois, ont été selectionnés dans le but de minimiser le bias marquant un groupe nourri au biberon qui aurait pu etre désavantagé par ailleurs. Ne furent considérés en relation avec le type ďalimentation chez le nourrisson que la capacitééducative et le niveau atteint. Un score plus élevé au vocabulaire à cinq ans et à la Higher British Ability Scale à 10 ans fut observé chez. les nourrissons exclusivement nourris au sein pour plus de trois mois. Ces données supportent et confirment les résultats obtenus dans des études précédentes sur les différences de développement à long terme entre nourrissons nourris au sein, ou nourris au biberon. ZUSAMMENFASSUNG Langzeiter/ahrungen über frühkindliche Ernährung bei einer klinisch besser versorgten Population von Säuglingen Informationen iiber frühklindliche Ernährung und kindliche Entwicklung wurden dem British Births Survey und anschliessenden Kontrolluntersuchungen mit fünf und zehn Jahren entnommen. Es wurde eine klinisch besser versorgte Untergruppe von Kindern ausgewählt, die mindestsens drei Monate ausschließlich mit der Flasche gefüttert Oder ausschließlich gestillt wurden, um Vorurteile gegen eine schlechter versorgte, mit der Flasche ernährte Gruppe möglichst auszuschließen. Nur im Bereich der schulischen Fähigkeiten und Erfolge wurden Unterschiede zwischen den Gruppen beobachtet. Höhere Wortschatz Test Scores mit fünf Jahren und hohere British Ability Scale Test Scores mit zehn Jahren fanden sich signifikant häufiger in der Gruppe der mehr als drei Monate ausschließlich gestillten Kinder. Diese Daten bestätigen und erweitern Befunde aus früheren Studien uber Unterschiede in der l.angzeitentwicklung zwischen gestillten und mit der Flasche ernährten Kindern. RESUMEN As...
