November 2021 Workshop: self-efficacy & Supplementation

All about Self-Efficacy and Supplementation

We will be exploring parents' feelings of self-efficacy in breast/chestfeeding, and how they understand and make decisions around supplementing with human milk, with colostrum that was expressed prenatally or with pasteurized donor human milk.

To better understand how decisions are made around supplementation, we will examine:

• current rates of in-hospital formula feeding,
• how to identify and address racial and geographic disparities,
• use of Pasteurized Donor Human Milk (PDHM), and
  
• prenatal colostrum harvesting
