Giriş
Human milk is the most appropriate of all available milks for the human infant because it's uniquely adapted to his or her needs. Sometimes breastfeeding is incriminated for unsatisfying increase of weight without other parameters examined (illness, nutritional faults, negligence), it is interrupted, the profits of breast milk are lost and the problem stili remain.
Amaç
Study the increase ot weight in healthy infants who are inclusively, breastfed, fed with formula or they use milk supply to correlate the increase of weight with the kind of nutrition
Yöntem
For 4 years we studied the weight of 580infants (228males, 352females)-B\V2,3-4,2 Kgr (average3,2 Kgr) in 2 phases; the time they stayed at the obstetric clinic and then until the age of 6 months We trained mothers to feed their babies properly and we encouraged those who used milk supply to use breast milk inclusively. At the end of the study we had 116 infants breastfeeding, formula 290,milk supplyl74
Bulgular
Breastfed infants had the birth weight or few gr less the time they left the clinic without nutri¬tional problems. 90%of them had 40gr/day increase of weight-first trimester, 25-30gr/day-2nd trimester. The rest had respectively 3O-2Ogr/day. With milk supply had 3-5%loss of the birth weight the first days, the increase of weight was 15-3^gr/clay. Formula fed infants had normal range of growing (0,7-1,3 Kgr/month) but they had mainly nutritional faults, hypoglycemia (they weren't fed for 8-1 Oh in the night), digestive problems (vomit, refluxes), the loss of birth weight when they left the clinic was 0-5'M)
Sonuç
All kinds of nutrition have good or excellent weight increase. Breastfed infants have more regular development with few divergences. With milk supply have smaller increase of weight because mothers give involuntarily less milk. Formula fed infants grow as well but they have digestive problems. Unsatisfying increase of weight is result of had nutrition, other factors, not due to the kind of milk better with breastfeeding.
