Fed is Best on the Doctor’s Show

Jillian Johnson and Dr. Christie del Castillo-Hegyi were recently interviewed on the Doctors Show and spoke about the importance of knowing the signs of infant starvation and when to supplement breastfeeding to protect a baby's life and brain.

An Important Message on Safe Breastfeeding from Jillian Johnson

Fed is Best Foundation Raises Awareness at the U.S. Task Force on Research for Pregnant and Lactating Women

On February 26, 2018, Dr. Christie del Castillo-Hegyi, traveled to the NIH to raise awareness on the dangerous gaps in breastfeeding management and education that is leading to common and serious complications in exclusively breastfed newborns. She discussed the lack of safety data on the Baby-Friendly Hospital Initiative and the complications caused by the push to increase rates of exclusive breastfeeding at discharge. She advocated for universal hospital reporting and informed consent of breastfeeding complications in order to protect infants from the dangers of underfeeding.

It is meant to inform parents of the most recent data regarding infant feeding and to increase their knowledge on how to protect their newborns and infants from hyperbilirubinemia, dehydration, hypernatremia, hypoglycemia and extended or repeat hospitalizations due to complications from underfeeding. Earlier supplementation may be needed for babies who are premature or have medical conditions. It is recommended that a parent seeks evaluation by a physician trained in newborn and infant care for any concerns regarding the health and safety of her baby if they arise.
