Listen "First Year of Formula Feeding"
Episode Synopsis
Feeding a baby isn't one-size-fits-all, and neither is formula. That's why community providers need to be prepared to navigate options with families, bust common myths and offer practical support through the first year of feeding. In this episode, we're breaking down the basics and digging deeper to understand formula. When it comes to feeding babies, family knowledge and support matters just as much as what's in the bottle. This episode was recorded on the exhibit floor at the 2025 Pediatric Academic Societies Conference in Honolulu, Hawaii. Joining us for this episode is Aamer Imdad, MD, from the Stead Family Children's Hospital and University of Iowa. Dr. Imdad specializes in gastroenterology. Some highlights from this episode include: Formula feeding in the U.S. and what is commonly available Guidance PCPs can offer families on choosing infant formulas with the most notable benefits for their baby When to explore the hypoallergenic formula space Whether or not certain formulas can increase the risk of childhood obesity For more information on Children's Colorado, visit: childrenscolorado.org.
