Though human milk feeding is the gold standard nutrition for newborns and infants, exclusive human milk feeding is not always achievable. Using case studies and personal accounts, this presentation aims to help providers identify infants who require supplementation and review recommendations for how to supplement safely and effectively while still working toward achieving the lactation goals of the family. The presenters will also discuss the history of supplementation and current trends including issues related to the recent formula shortage.

Please note that this program is a recording from a live and virtual session from NAPNAP 2023 national conference in Orlando, Fla. If you earned CE for this session, this course will be a duplicate.
