Description
Sadia Butt studies poor early feeding of infants at a Lahore children's hospital in a 2025 solo paper. Complementary feeding starts when babies add solids to milk feeds. Late or poor feeding fuels malnutrition in young children. Butt asked what drives weak feeding in urban Pakistan families.
She surveyed 62 mothers of children aged six months to two years. Just over half started solids at the right time. Less than half met the bar for varied daily foods. Only about a third met the full diet standard for their age. The father's schooling linked most clearly to meal frequency. Care visits in pregnancy also showed a near link. Butt urges stronger food counsel at those visits.
