Father Involvement in Baby Development Study
This study looks at how much fathers participate in caring for their babies and how this affects the baby's growth and development. Researchers want to understand whether father involvement makes a difference in infant outcomes.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial looks at how early feeding (breastmilk or formula) affects an infant's immune system and health. Researchers will collect samples and health information from mothers and their babies over time.
This study tests if teaching fathers about breastfeeding can help mothers breastfeed longer and more successfully. Fathers will receive education and support, and researchers will track how well breastfeeding goes.
