  • The Long-Term Effects of Breastfeeding on Development
    3 The Long-Term Effects of Breastfeeding on Development Wendy H. Oddy1, Jianghong Li1,3, Monique Robinson1 and Andrew J.O.

Introduction The link between breastfeeding duration and subsequent development, cognition, educational, mental, psychomotor and behavioural functioning of the infant has been the subject of much scientific enquiry. Indeed, the effect of feeding on infant health and development was first discussed more than half a century ago when breastfed babies were reported to have better cognitive outcomes in childhood than artificially fed babies (Hoefer and Hardy 1929). Some studies have found striking results pertaining to the relative advantages that breastfeeding can confer on child neurodevelopment (Oddy, Kendall et al. 2003; Vohr, Poindexter et al. 2006; Kramer, Aboud et al. 2008). Breastfeeding has previously been associated with improvements across neurodevelopmental domains for low birthweight babies in comparison with not breastfeeding at all (Vohr, Poindexter et al. 2006). One study reported results from a large randomized controlled trial and found that breastfeeding for a longer duration and exclusive breastfeeding were associated with significant increases in

  • Cross-Linguistic Patterns in Infant Babbling
    Cross-linguistic Patterns in Infant Babbling Andreea Geambașu, Mariska Scheel, and Clara C. Levelt 1. Introduction Infants begin to vocalize very soon after birth, and they begin to babble about six months after they are born (Oller, 1980). The babbling stage is distinct from the previous phase of vocalizations in that sounds – or gestures in infants acquiring sign language – are now clearly organized in a syllabic structure. As such, these utterances are the infant’s first linguistic productions. In the works of Stark (1980) and Oller (1980), two stages were identified within the babbling phase. Babies start with reduplicated babbling when they are six to eight months old, and progress into “variegated” (Oller, 1980) or “non- reduplicated” (Stark, 1980) babbling at 10 to 12 months. Work by Koopmans- van Beinum and van der Stelt (1986) outlines a similar line of development, with reduplicated babbling beginning at six months and lasting up until at least 12 months. They do not identify a specific non-reduplicated stage during this period. In addition, Roug, Landberg, and Lundberg (1989) also identified babbling stages similar to those proposed by Oller and Stark, with reduplicated (consonant) babbling beginning at seven months, and variegated babbling beginning at 12 months. The stages identified by these researchers differ only slightly. Where they crucially converge is on the consensus that infants begin their babbling at around six to eight months old, that they begin with reduplicated utterances, and that they transition into producing variegated utterances at around 10 to 12 months. The existence of these two stages has been disseminated in introductory linguistics textbooks for years (e.g., Hoff, 2008).

  • 2 Month Well Child
    Cornerstone Pediatrics Michael Marsh, M.D. Phone Number: (817)596-3531 Website: www.cornerstonekid.com 2 Month Well Child Name: _______________________________________ Date: ___________________ Weight: _______ lbs _______ oz Length: _______ in Head Circumference: _______ cm Age: _______ Next Scheduled Appointment: _________________________________ General Nutrition: A simple diet of breast milk or iron-fortified formula is all your baby needs until 6 months of age. Solid foods, juices, cow’s milk given too early can lead to allergies, anemia and poor nutrition. Breast feed or bottle feed on demand. Babies should not be laid flat on their backs while feeding and bottles should always be held by a caregiver and not propped up. These can lead to choking and increased ear infections. Always cuddle baby during feedings. Babies will need fluoride by 6 months. Check whether the water you use is fluoridated. We will prescribe a fluoride supplement at six months if your household water is not fluoridated. Please do not give your baby honey during the first year. Honey can contain harmful bacteria that infants cannot process. Please do not give honey, tomatoes, or citrus until after 12 months of age. Please do not give hen eggs until 24 months of age. Please do not give peanuts, tree nuts, fish or seafood until 24 months of age. If your baby is wetting 6-8 diapers a day and gaining weight appropriately the baby’s feeding is adequate. Babies do not need extra water until at least 6 months of age and only in the summer. They are highly sensitive to water and can get water overloaded very easily.
