Seeking Pregnant and Newly Breastfeeding Moms to Join Study

Researchers with the New Moms Wellness Study are seeking participants.

The entire study can be done from home, with no face-to-face contact with researchers. 

All participants complete surveys and provide four samples of breast milk and infant stool. All participants will receive financial compensation for their time and free lactation consultation. Half the participants in this study of breastfeeding moms will receive free weekly deliveries of fruits and vegetables, as well as telephone nutrition counseling. 

Mothers who are breastfeeding a baby less than six weeks old, or those who are pregnant and plan on breastfeeding, and live within 35 miles of Amherst, Massachusetts are eligible for participation.
