Parental Feeding Strategies and Outcomes During Complementary Food Introduction Among Preterm Infants at 12 Months Corrected Age
Parents of preterm infants use different strategies during the complementary feeding period to navigate their infant's feeding, with potential implications for later feeding problems. Future research should explore causal mechanism behind parental strategy use and feeding problem symptoms through longitudinal analyses and investigate how parental perceptions and decision-making regarding mealtime strategy use evolve over the first year of life.
