  1. Breast Feeding vs. Bottle Feeding Karen Johal Jensine Yang

  2. What are the advantages of… breast feeding? bottle feeding?

  3. Breast milk… where does it come from?

  4. Breast milk…where does it come from? Prolactin Oxytocin Colostrum Foremilk Hindmilk • Proteins • Carbohydrates • Fats • Vitamins • Recommended for first 6 months

  5. Benefits for Mom • Delay in return of ovulation • Prolactin has protective qualities regarding breast cancer • Risk for Type II diabetes is decreased by up to 50% • Helps lose dangerous belly fat and other weight that was accumulated during pregnancy

  6. Benefits for Mom • Important bonding time with child • Decreased mealtime conflict between mother and child in later childhood

  7. Benefits for Baby • Ideal food for babies • Provides innate immunity • Protection from infectious diseases • Better cognitive development

  8. Benefits for Baby • Breast-fed infants don’t suffer from constipation as regularly as formula-fed infants • Compared to formula-fed infants, breast fed infants had proper growth and energy balance

  9. Benefits for Baby • Breast-fed infants have a decreased risk for obesity http://www.healthjockey.com/2009/03/31/weight-gain-during-infancy-may-lead-to-obesity-in-childhood/

  10. Study: Self-regulation and feeding mode • Conducted from 2005-2007 • 1250 infants studied • Purpose: What is the relationship between obesity and feeding mode? • Questionnaires used to collect data in first year of infancy and later childhood • If emptied bottle or cup in later infant life, considered unable to self-regulate

  11. Results • of the exclusively breast-fed infants: 27% emptied the cup • of the mixed-mode fed infants: 54% emptied the cup • of the exclusively bottle-fed infants: 68% emptied the cup • Additionally, exclusively breast-fed infants emptied the cup later in life

  12. And so we can conclude…. • Breast-fed infants are better self-regulators, thus less likely to overeat and become at risk for obesity. • Thus breast feeding is possibly beneficial in the prevention of obesity.

  13. Bottle feeding: Risks • Mothers limit their interaction with their babies • Formula preparation • Plastic baby bottles that leach BPA

  14. Disadvantages of Breast Feeding • inconvenience • not everyone can feed the baby • lack of social acceptability • limited ‘safe space’ for mothers to breast-feed • discomfort • pain, tenderness, and inflammation of the breasts

  15. Disadvantages of Breast Feeding • health of the mother • presence of drugs or alcohol • possibility of viral transmittance • presence of chemical and environmental contaminants • PCB, DDE • health of the infant • intolerances, deficiencies, weight • need for nutrient supplementation • iron, fats, folates

  16. Advantages of Bottle Feeding • specific to infant’s dietary needs • specialty formulas for babies that are born with metabolic conditions • lactose-free formulas • lactose intolerance or galactosemia • pre-mature formulas • low-birth or premature infants • contain more proteins, vitamins, minerals • debatable - depends on the infant’s gestational age and overall health

  17. Study Supporting Bottle Feeding • compared folate content in human milk and casein-based and soya-based formulas • higher folate and lower tHcy in formula-fed infants than human milk-fed infants at 5 months • infants fed on human milk consistently had the lowest folate intake while infants fed on soy-based formula had the highest folate intake

  18. In Conclusion… • Breastfeeding: • gives baby innate immunity • provides a good balance of nutrients • positively impacts mother’s health • difficult in today’s society

  19. In Conclusion… • Bottle feeding: • viable alternative • provide baby with as much nutrition when prepared correctly • independent of the mother’s health • be mindful about the bottles used • know how to prepare and heat the formula

  20. Decision? • personal choice • consider medical conditions • be informed about whatever method you choose to use!
