Effectiveness of a new approach for exclusive breastfeeding counselling on breastfeeding prevalence, infant growth velocity and postpartum weight loss in overweight or obese women: protocol for a randomized controlled trial

Abstract: Background: Maternal overweight, infant feeding and early growth velocity are risk factors for obesity later in life. The first one thousand days are a window of opportunity to program health and disease. Exclusive breastfeeding may protect against obesity; however, it is not consistently practiced.

“…Studies to address maternal weight have focused on the prevention of excess gestational weight gain and postpartum weight loss. Intervention timing and strategies have varied, including a focus on gestational weight gain, healthy eating, and goal setting during pregnancy [ 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 ], postpartum weight loss [ 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 ], a combination [ 19 ], and a direct comparison [ 20 ]. The postpartum period represents a teachable window for intervention as women may be motivated to prevent future disease prevention for themselves and their families.…”

Infants who are not breastfed, on the other hand, are more susceptible to these diseases.…”
