Combination feeding is common, but are we counseling families in ways that truly support their goals?

Join us for Inclusive Breastfeeding Care: Supporting Combination Feeding in Clinical Practice, a practical, evidence-based discussion designed specifically for pediatric providers and healthcare professionals.

✨ What “dose-dependent” really means when we talk about human milk
✨ How subtle counseling language can influence breastfeeding duration
✨ When supplementation is clinically indicated and how to support it well
✨ The real-world impact of infant feeding marketing on families
✨ Practical strategies you can apply immediately in clinic

Inclusive Breastfeeding Care: Supporting Combination Feeding in Clinical Practice

Join us for an evidence-based discussion designed for pediatric clinicians and healthcare professionals supporting families who are combination feeding.

This session will explore the dose-dependent health benefits of human milk, clinical and contextual factors that influence feeding decisions, counseling approaches that may unintentionally discourage continued breastfeeding, and the impact of infant feeding marketing on care delivery and family choice. Participants will also gain practical, evidence-based strategies to optimize lactation support and follow-up in pediatric practice.
