Bottle feeding study for healthy 4-6 month old babies
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study tests different bottle nipples to see which flow rate helps babies feed best. It is for healthy babies who are 4 to 6 months old and get at least one bottle feeding a week.

This trial looks at how “perinatal programming” (early-life influences starting around pregnancy and the first month) may affect babies. It enrolls healthy, full-term births and compares families who can follow an all-breastfeeding or all-formula plan.
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 looks at very young babies to understand early signs of obesity risk. If your baby is under 4 months old and mainly drinks breastmilk, they may help researchers learn more about how body growth and feeding relate to health later in life.
This study tests a program to help parents handle feeding their 4- or 5-year-old child who is very motivated by food. It aims to support healthy eating habits.
This study tests a new infant formula to see how healthy babies grow and develop. If your baby is healthy, full-term, and formula-fed, they may be able to join.
This study looks at how and when children eat. It uses a special scan and asks parents about their child's mealtimes to learn about healthy eating patterns.
