Study Summary

This trial looks at how a mother's emotions and attachment affect her child's eating habits, diet and weight.

Who is the study for?
This study is for mother-infant pairs where the child is already part of an ongoing observational study (NCT06039878). It's focused on understanding how emotions, bonding, and eating patterns between a mother and baby are related to feeding habits, the child's eating behaviors, diet, and body fat.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is exploring the Caloric Compensation Index (COMPX), which may help explain biobehavioral connections in how mothers and infants interact with food. The goal is to see if this interaction predicts maternal feeding practices and infant outcomes like eating behavior and weight gain.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves observation rather than medication or invasive procedures, there are no direct side effects from interventions. However, participation could potentially influence a mother’s perception of her feeding practices or stress levels.
