Observational Study of Maternal and Child Nutrition in Arkansas
This study aims to understand how a pregnant woman's diet affects breastfeeding and the health of both mother and baby. Researchers will also look at how social factors, like access to food, play a role. You would participate if you are at least 30 weeks pregnant and can stay involved for the first 12 months after your baby is born. The study will track your diet during pregnancy and for two years after birth, as well as your child's eating patterns and breastfeeding outcomes. There are no specific interventions (treatments) being tested, as this is an observational study. The current recruitment status is unclear, but the study plans to enroll 125 women.
